Gut Microbiota-derived Bile Acids Promote Gamma-secretase Activity Through Interactions with Nicastrin Subunits [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Alzheimer's disease (AD) has emerged as a progressively pervasive neurodegenerative disorder worldwide. Bile acids, synthesized in the liver and modified by the gut microbiota, play pivotal roles in diverse physiological processes, and their dysregulation in individuals with AD has been well-documented.

Biliary cystic tumors with bile duct communication: a cystic variant of intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct [PDF]
Modern Pathology, 2006 Biliary cystic tumors, which are also called biliary cystadenoma and cystadenocarcinoma, are thought to be a heterogeneous disease entity, and some of them are known to show a luminal communication to the bile duct. In this study, we examined the clinicopathological features of nine cases of biliary cystic tumors with bile duct communication. They were

Functional Polarization of Liver Macrophages by Glyco Gold Nanoparticles
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Macrophages play a critical role in several pathophysiological diseases by being involved in the activation of adaptive and innate immune responses. The repolarization of macrophages using gold nanoparticles functionalized with glycans for a more selective targeting toward a restorative phenotype leads to an amelioration of the events.

REMEDI: REinforcement learning-driven adaptive MEtabolism modeling of primary sclerosing cholangitis DIsease progression [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a rare disease wherein altered bile acid metabolism contributes to sustained liver injury. This paper introduces REMEDI, a framework that captures bile acid dynamics and the body's adaptive response during PSC progression that can assist in exploring treatments.

Approximate One-Dimensional Models for Monoenergetic Neutral Particle Transport in Ducts with Wall Migration [PDF]
Journal of Computational and Theoretical Transport 46.4 (2017):
242-257, 2016 The problem of monoenergetic neutral particle transport in a duct, where particles travel inside the duct walls, is treated using an approximate one-dimensional model. The one-dimensional model uses three-basis functions, as part of a previously derived weighted-residual procedure, to account for the geometry of particle transport in a duct system ...

Intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct: a recurring disease
Revista Española de Enfermedades Digestivas, 2019 Intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB) is a premalignant disease characterized by a low incidence, a high risk of malignant transformation, and an uncertain prognosis. We hereby present the case of an 8-mm IPNB in the left liver lobe detected by endosonography in a 76-year-old woman followed for a dissociated asymptomatic cholestasis ...

HNF3α Targets Nckap1l and Promotes Renal Fibrosis Following Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 3 alpha (HNF3α) is significantly upregulated in renal tubular epithelial cells of CKD patients and fibrotic mice. Deletion of HNF3α mitigates IRI‐induced renal fibrosis, while overexpression worsens it. HNF3α directly regulates NCK‐associated protein 1‐like (Nckap1l), whose overexpression exacerbates fibrosis.

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Steatotic HCC can be diagnosed by MRI and forms a pro‐tumor immune microenvironment with high expression of PD‐L1, M2 polarization of macrophages and activation of CAFs, which may be a good target for combined immunotherapy. Abstract Background and Aims Immunotherapy has become the standard‐of‐care treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but its ...

Biliary cystadenoma and choledochal polyp: a rare association [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Scientific Research, 2013 Biliary cystadenomas are rare, potentially malignant neoplasms of biliary origin occurring predominantly in middle aged women. Here we report a case of biliary cystadenoma in a young female who presented with an epigastric mass and features of ...
