ABSTRACT Background and aims Non‐alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) affects about a quarter of the world's population. Liver biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosing the progressive form of NAFLD called Non‐alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) but it is invasive, prone to sampling errors and observer variability, and impractical for widespread ...

Variants of alpha-1-antitrypsin
Provided are variants of alpha-1-antitrypsin comprising mutations which render the variants oxidation- as well as protease-resistant, polynucleotides encoding said variants, methods of producing the variants and the variants for use in the treatment of ...

Affinity Proteomics‐Based Non‐Invasive Detection of Clinically Significant Liver Disease
Using UK Biobank proteomic data, we identified a five‐protein score reflecting hepatic stellate cell activation and hepatocellular injury that predicts major adverse liver outcomes and clinically significant fibrosis, with consistent performance validated in two independent cohorts (patients with HIV and alpha1‐antitrypsin deficiency).

In ANA‐positive patients with suspected autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), liver biopsy rarely altered therapeutic management when alanine aminotransferase (ALT) was below 101 U/L and cirrhosis was absent. These findings suggest that biopsy may be safely deferred in this low‐risk group.

ABSTRACT Introduction This explanatory pilot study presents a workflow to identify approved drugs, which could be repurposed for periodontitis therapy using salivary proteomics combined with drug‐target database screening. Methods Proteomic analyses of saliva using LC–MS/MS were conducted in two independent settings: a cohort (sub‐study I, N = 187) and

Alpha-1 antitrypsin phenotypes and alcoholic pancreatitis
Altered frequencies of alpha-1 antitrypsin phenotypes have been reported in patients with chronic pancreatitis, suggesting a possible genetic basis for individual susceptibility to this disease.

Integrated transcriptomic, single‐cell, pseudotime, cell–cell communication, human tissue, and in vivo analyses define a dynamic four‐gene axis across the MASLD continuum. Progressive CYP2C19 downregulation and AKR1B10, COL1A2, and SPP1 upregulation link metabolic dysfunction to disease progression, while AKR1B10 knockdown or CYP2C19 overexpression ...
