Understanding the role of transcription and transcription factors (TFs) in cellular identity and disease, such as cancer, is essential. However, comprehensive data resources for cell line-specific TF-to-target gene annotations are currently limited. To address this, we employed a straightforward method to define regulons that capture the cell-specific aspects of TF binding and transcript expression levels.

Metabolic-dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common chronic liver disease in the Western world. MASLD-associated cirrhosis prevalence is on the rise along with the obesity and metabolic syndrome epidemic. Genetic factors are included in the multi-hit model of MASLD pathogenesis and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) has an important role.
