BRD4 Signaling Maintains the Differentiated State of β Cells
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The comprehensive exploration revealed the critical role of BRD4 in β cells. BRD4 plays a fundamental role in maintaining β cell differentiation because both long‐term and acute BRD4 deficiency result in a reduction in insulin secretion and downregulation of differentiation markers.

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 ...

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.This retrospective study suggests that gastrectomy is a risk factor for choledocholithiasis. Especially in terms of the differences in reconstruction methods, the median time from gastrectomy to development of choledocholithiasis was 5.5 years for Roux‐en‐Y, which was significantly faster than 20 years for Billroth I and 35 years for Billroth II ...

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 ...
