Liver Transplantation for Acute on Chronic Liver Failure [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hepatology, 2017
Acute-on chronic liver failure (ACLF) is defined as acute insult on previous liver disease that causes sudden worsening of liver functions.ACLF is characterized by high incidence of organ failure and prognosis is remarkably worse than patients with cirrhosis. Incidence of organ failures is very high despite best medical care and timely liver transplant

Macrophage Activation Markers, CD163 and CD206, in Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure

Cells, 2020
Macrophages facilitate essential homeostatic functions e.g., endocytosis, phagocytosis, and signaling during inflammation, and express a variety of scavenger receptors including CD163 and CD206, which are upregulated in response to inflammation.
