Abstract
•H2AFJ is upregulated in hepatocyte-derived exosomes in CCl4-stimulated liver fibrosis.•H2AFJ upregulates STMN1 by activating the MAPK signaling pathway.•Exosomal H2AFJ from hepatocytes promotes HSC activation.•H2AFJ silencing relieves liver fibrosis in mice by suppressing MAPK/STMN1 activation.•The study unveils a potential therapeutic target for treating liver fibrosis.
