Effects of the administration of pentoxifylline and prednisolone on the evolution of portal fibrogenesis secondary to biliary obstruction in growing animals: immunohistochemical analysis of the expression of TGF-β and VEGF

Clinics, 2012
OBJECTIVE: During the neonatal and infancy periods, some chronic liver diseases may lead to progressive hepatic fibrosis, which is a condition that can ultimately result in the loss of organ function and severe portal hypertension necessitating hepatic ...

Autocrine Netrin‐1 Signaling in Hepatic Stellate Cells Drives Liver Fibrosis and Diet‐Induced Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatohepatitis in Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Netrin‐1 expression is upregulated in hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) during metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis and injury‐mediated liver fibrosis. Secreted Netrin‐1 establishes an autocrine positive feedback loop by binding to UNC5B receptors on HSCs.

Snare-assisted precutting and dual-knife fistulotomy performed during difficult biliary cannulation in a patient with an ectopic papilla of Vater

Journal of International Medical Research, 2021
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatobiliary diseases; however, successful biliary cannulation is a prerequisite for this operation.

GlycoChat Uncovers Glycan–Lectin Circuits in the Tumor Microenvironment of Pancreatic Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Aberrant glycosylation drives cancer progression, yet its role in the tumor microenvironment remains unclear. We developed GlycoChat to map glycan–lectin circuits at single‐cell resolution. We discovered that cancer cells induce immunosuppressive macrophage differentiation and impair phagocytosis through interactions with CLEC10A and SIGLEC3 ...

The NADPH oxidase NOX4 regulates redox and metabolic homeostasis preventing HCC progression

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Loss of NOX4 in HCC tumor cells induces metabolic reprogramming in a Nrf2/MYC‐dependent manner to promote HCC progression. Abstract Background and Aims The NADPH oxidase NOX4 plays a tumor‐suppressor function in HCC. Silencing NOX4 confers higher proliferative and migratory capacity to HCC cells and increases their in vivo tumorigenic potential in ...

A Tissue‐Engineered Artificial Bile Duct Grown to Resemble The Native Bile Duct

American Journal of Transplantation, 2005
The aim of this study was to fabricate an artificial bile duct for the development of a new treatment for biliary diseases. Eighteen hybrid pigs were implanted with a bile duct organoid unit (BDOU) made of a bioabsorbable polymer.

Magnetoelectric Nanotherapy Achieves Complete Tumor Ablation and Prolonged Survival in Pancreatic Cancer Murine Models

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Magnetoelectric nanoparticles (MENPs) serve as externally controlled, MRI‐activated theranostic agents for targeted cancer therapy by inducing electric field‐based ablation in solid tumors. MENPs enable simultaneous precise tumor ablation and MRI signal modulation, allowing real‐time treatment monitoring and prediction of therapeutic outcomes with no ...

Mitochondrial stress in advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis associated with chronic hepatitis B, chronic hepatitis C, or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Adaptive mitochondrial mechanisms allow mitochondrial resilience and prevent the worsening of fibrosis, while deregulation of these mechanisms promotes the progression from no/minimal‐mild (F0‐F2) fibrosis to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis (F3‐F4). Abstract Background and Aims Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection causes oxidative stress (OS) and alters ...
