Background As the prevalence of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) continues to rise, drug development has accelerated, with growing interest in therapeutic strategies that harness metabolic hormones. Metabolic hormone-based approaches, particularly those originally developed for obesity and diabetes, have shown potential to mitigate MASH. Notably, the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist sema...

Background Calcium ions play a pivotal role in cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration. Under basal conditions, the calcium level is tightly regulated; however, cellular activation by growth factors increase the ion level through calcium pumps in the plasma membrane and endoplasmic reticulum for calcium signaling. Orai1 is a major calcium channel in the cell membrane of non-excitable cells, and its activity depends...
