MAP4K4 and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease: Importantly, we here only examined in Taok3–/– mice the expression of a selected portion of the STE20 kinases, which are either most closely related to TAOK3 (i.e., GCK-VIII subfamily members TAOK1 and TAOK2) and/or have been previously implicated to increase the risk of NAFLD susceptibility (i.e., GCK-III subfamily members MST3, MST4, and STK25, and GCK-IV subfamily member MAP4K4).
