Stochastic Ordering under Conditional Modelling of Extreme Values: Drug-Induced Liver Injury [PDF]
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a major public health issue and of serious concern for the pharmaceutical industry. Early detection of signs of a drug's potential for DILI is vital for pharmaceutical companies' evaluation of new drugs. A combination of extreme values of liver specific variables indicate potential DILI (Hy's Law).

Model predicts fundamental role of biomechanical control of cell cycle progression during liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy [PDF]
Partial hepatectomy (PHx) is a surgical intervention where a part of the liver is removed. Due to its extraordinary capacity to regenerate, the liver is able to regenerate about two-thirds of its mass within a few weeks. Nevertheless, in some patients regeneration fails. Understanding the principles and limitations underlying regeneration may permit to

Detecting drug-drug interactions using artificial neural networks and classic graph similarity measures [PDF]
Drug-drug interactions are preventable causes of medical injuries and often result in doctor and emergency room visits. Computational techniques can be used to predict potential drug-drug interactions. We approach the drug-drug interaction prediction problem as a link prediction problem and present two novel methods for drug-drug interaction prediction

AMFPMC -- An improved method of detecting multiple types of drug-drug interactions using only known drug-drug interactions [PDF]
Adverse drug interactions are largely preventable causes of medical accidents, which frequently result in physician and emergency room encounters. The detection of drug interactions in a lab, prior to a drug's use in medical practice, is essential, however it is costly and time-consuming.

Intravital Multiphoton Microscopy with Fluorescent Bile Salts in Rats as an In Vivo Biomarker for Hepatobiliary Transport Inhibition [PDF]
The bile salt export pump (BSEP) is expressed at the canalicular domain of hepatocytes, where it mediates the elimination of monovalent bile salts into the bile.

Molecular determinants of acute kidney injury [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a condition that leads to a rapid deterioration of renal function associated with impairment to maintain electrolyte and acid balance, and, if left untreated, ultimately irreversible kidney damage and renal ...

Modeling Progressive Fibrosis with Pluripotent Stem Cells Identifies an Anti-fibrotic Small Molecule. [PDF]
Progressive organ fibrosis accounts for one-third of all deaths worldwide, yet preclinical models that mimic the complex, progressive nature of the disease are lacking, and hence, there are no curative therapies. Progressive fibrosis across organs shares

Aims Although useful for distinguishing drug‐induced liver injury (DILI) from autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), liver biopsy is an invasive examination, and the presence of antinuclear antibody (ANA) positivity in patients with DILI could lead to excessive use
