CD8+ T cell memory is sustained in mice by hepatic stellate cells
HSC role in memory CD8+ T cell maintenance. Abstract Background and Aims Long‐lasting immunological memory is the ultimate goal of vaccination. Homeostatic maintenance of memory CD8+ cytotoxic T cells (MemCD8TCs) is thought to be mediated by IL‐15/IL‐15R heterodimer (15HD)‐expressing myeloid cells.

ABSTRACT Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) is classically caused by biallelic pathogenic variants, yet monoallelic variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in PFIC‐associated genes are increasingly identified in children with cholestasis, creating diagnostic uncertainty.

Lrat+ quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSC) give rise to Lrat+Fbln2+ activated HSC (aHSC) in alcohol‐associated hepatitis and this subpopulation is highly profibrotic, inflammatory, and immunoregulatory based on their single cell transcriptomic profile. Abstract Background and Aims Relative roles of HSCs and portal fibroblasts in alcoholic hepatitis (

TTC21B: From Modifier to Causative Gene in Joubert Syndrome
ABSTRACT Biallelic pathogenic variants in TTC21B, encoding the retrograde intraflagellar transport protein IFT139, are a known cause of renal and skeletal ciliopathies. Single heterozygous variants in this gene were found to be enriched in a cohort of patients with various ciliopathy phenotypes, including three individuals with Joubert syndrome (JS), a

Serum bile acids as a prognostic biomarker in biliary atresia following Kasai portoenterostomy
Serum bile acid levels predict outcomes in patients with biliary atresia who achieve normalized bilirubin levels after Kasai portoenterostomy. Abstract Background and Aims In biliary atresia, serum bilirubin is commonly used to predict outcomes after Kasai portoenterostomy (KP).

Abstract This study investigated the physiological and morphological adaptations of the liver of the carnivorous fish Pygocentrus nattereri (piranha) in response to seasonal variations (dry and rainy seasons) in the Brazilian Pantanal. The objective was to describe how the liver, a central organ in metabolic regulation, responds to environmental ...

Chronic bile duct cannulation in the dog
Chronic bile duct cannulation for periods of up to 6 months was obtained by catheterizing the bile duct in cholecystectomized dogs with plastic tubing without ligation of the bile duct. Between experiments, the bile drained into the intestine and during
