Lipotoxicity is a key pathological feature in the development of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which is characterized by liver injury, inflammation, and fibrosis. Although lipotoxicity has been shown to induce transcriptomic alterations in liver cells, the specific role of epigenetic regulators in NASH remains elusive. In this study, we demonstrate that pharmacological inhibition of histone methyltransferase G9a significantly worsens NASH progression in mice, as evidenced by increased hepatic cell death, inflammation, and fibrosis.
