      <STUDY_ABSTRACT>A duplication in the exportin 4 (XPO4) CNV reduces the expression of hepatic XPO4 leading to maintaining sustained activation of SMAD3/SMAD4 and liver fibrosis. Overall design: We overexpressed Xpo4 in JS-1 cells with and without treatment of TGFß and undertook RNA-Seq analysis and compared to empty vector control</STUDY_ABSTRACT>
