<div><p><b>Background:</p> </b><p>Early detection of liver disease has been identified as a public health priority in the UK. Symptoms are rare before advanced stages and case finding using risk factors improves identification. In financially constrained health systems, case finding in areas with greater disease burden is prudent. Socio-economic deprivation is associated with advanced liver disease. We assessed the incidence of liver disease by population deprivation using a community case finding pathway.</p>

<div><p><b>Background: </b>Liver acetylome is a set of protein acetylation’s whose level reflects cellular metabolic health and is directly linked to intracellular pathways. However, to date, little is known about the cellular pathways that maintain the hepatic acetylome levels. Here, we show that macroautophagy hereafter referred to as autophagy, an intracellular lysosomal degradative pathway, regulates the hepatic acetylome.</p>
