The journal article with the DOI 10.1042/BA20080063 aimed to investigate the mechanisms involved in the regulation of liver metabolism during fasting. Specifically, the authors aimed to identify the role of transcription factors, hormones, and metabolic intermediates in the regulation of gene expression and metabolic pathways involved in glucose, fatty acid, and amino acid metabolism in the liver. Ultimately, the study aimed to enhance our understanding of the complex regulatory mechanisms that govern liver metabolism during fasting, which could have implications for the development of therapies for metabolic diseases such as obesity and diabetes.
