Advances in FGF/FGFR Signaling: Implications for Disease and Therapy
The FGF/FGFR signaling is indispensable for the maintenance of physiological homeostasis and governs multiple biological processes, including embryonic development, bone metabolism, angiogenesis, and neurogenesis, whereas aberrant hyperactivation of this pathway drives the progression of malignancies and autoimmune disorders, including inflammatory ...

Genetic Cholestasis: Lessons from the Molecular Physiology of Bile Formation
Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) is a group of severe genetic cholestatic liver diseases of early life. PFIC types 1 and 2 are characterized by cholestasis and a low to normal serum gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) activity, whereas in

Strain background modifies phenotypes in the ATP8B1-deficient mouse. [PDF]
Mutations in ATP8B1 (FIC1) underlie cases of cholestatic disease, ranging from chronic and progressive (progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis) to intermittent (benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis).

Prenatal Noninvasive Trio-WES in a Case of Pregnancy-Related Liver Disorder
Liver disease in pregnancy may present as an acute condition related to the gestational period, characterized by pruritus, jaundice, and abnormal liver function.

Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency (PKD) and Crigler-Najjar syndrome are rare autosomal recessive liver diseases. PKD is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in the PKLR gene, leading to non-spherocytic hereditary hemolytic anemia.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Loss‐of‐function mutations in bile acid (BA)‐activated farnesoid x receptor (FXR/NR1H4) cause severe neonatal liver pathology in humans, earlier referred to as progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 5 (PFIC5). However, Fxr‐deficient mice do not develop early‐onset liver disease, possibly due to the predominance ...

We report two Omani brothers with intrahepatic cholestasis that resolved with supportive care. In one, cholestasis began in infancy; in the other, only at the age of 18 months.

Alagille syndrome and liver: an adult case report
Background Alagille syndrome is a rare autosomal-dominant disorder, representing 10 to 15% of the causes of neonatal cholestasis with no gender predominance.

ABSTRACT The liver is increasingly recognized as a major regulator of systemic cardio‐renal‐metabolic health. Evidence is mounting that sex‐chromosome dosage per se itself, independent of gonadal sex hormones, modulates hepatic physiology and liver disease risk.
