Disrupted Mitochondrial Copper Homeostasis Promotes Ferroptotic Stress, Senescence and MASLD Progression

Niansheng Ren, Liuyang Wang, Rajesh Kumar Dutta, David S. Umbaugh, Qiaojuan Zhang, Seh‐Hoon Oh, Dennis C. Ko, Ming Song, Anna Mae Diehl, Kuo Du

This study shows that mitochondrial copper deficiency drives MASLD by causing ferroptosis, senescence, and fibrosis, and that restoring copper homeostasis can alleviate disease.
