Moderate overexpression of wild‐type Met in hepatocytes (Alb‐R26Met mouse model) boosts a strong antioxidant response dependent on the glutathione system while impairing TGF‐β signaling in the liver. This leads to improved liver regeneration and protects against DDC‐induced injury, a model for cholestatic disease sharing features with primary ...

ABSTRACT Introduction The liver plays an important role to prevent translocation of gut‐derived toxins from the portal to the systemic circulation. Chronic inflammation is common in patients receiving hemodialysis, and increased gut permeability to microbial material has been implicated in its pathogenesis.

ABSTRACT Aim Bile acid (BA) signaling plays an important role in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy (HE), including covert (CHE) and overt HE (OHE). However, few studies have examined its clinical impact in patients with cirrhosis. Methods This retrospective study included patients with cirrhosis who underwent CHE assessment using a computer ...

Three metabolites, pyroglutamylglycine (pyroGluGly), phenylalanine (Phe), and phenylalanyltryptophan (PheTrp), were identified as candidate DILI biomarkers. The serum concentrations of pyroGluGly, Phe, and PheTrp demonstrated a high differentiating ability in patients with mixed and cholestatic DILI compared with those in patients who recovered from ...

In children with biliary atresia (BA), breath‐holding during liver and spleen stiffness (LS and SS) measurement is often difficult, raising concerns about measurement reliability in the awake state. We investigated whether performing LS and SS measurements under general anesthesia—when brief ventilation pauses are possible—could improve diagnostic ...

It is speculated that the onset of obesity‐related diseases follows the sequence of obesity → SLD → MetS‐related diseases. In this study, the contribution of SLD to each MetS‐related disease was large for T2D and hypertension and SLD contributed to the onset and new onset of the disease by the 7‐year follow‐up.

ABSTRACT Background Both intraoperative hypotension (IOH) and vasopressor administration are independently associated with postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in adults undergoing major noncardiac surgery. Whether these associations extend to children undergoing major noncardiac surgery, such as liver transplantation, remains unknown.
