Bile Acid Receptor Therapeutics Effects on Chronic Liver Diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In the past ten years, our understanding of the importance of bile acids has expanded from fat absorption and glucose/lipid/energy homeostasis into potential therapeutic targets for amelioration of chronic cholestatic liver diseases.

Clinical Features and Risk Factors of Autoimmune Liver Involvement in Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
OBJECTIVES:Autoimmune liver disease is reported in up to 7.8% of children with inflammatory bowel disease. A distinct inflammatory bowel disease phenotype has been suggested in adults and in small pediatric cohorts.

The incidence of portal vein thrombosis at liver transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The incidence of portal vein thrombosis was examined in 885 patients who received orthotopic liver transplantations for various end‐stage liver diseases between 1989 and 1990. The thrombosis was classified into four grades.

Identification of a serum biomarker panel for the differential diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma and primary sclerosing cholagnitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The non-invasive differentiation of malignant and benign biliary disease is a clinical challenge. Carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), leucine-rich α2-glycoprotein (LRG1), interleukin 6 (IL6), pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2), cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21.1)

Does ursodeoxycholic acid change the proliferation of the colorectal mucosa? A randomized, placebo-controlled study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Background: In animal models ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) showed a chemoprotective effect against colon cancer. To explain this, a reduced proliferation of the colorectal mucosal proliferation was suggested.

Serum micrornas as novel biomarkers for primary sclerosing cholangitis and cholangiocarcinoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The diagnosis of primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is difficult due to the lack of sensitive and specific biomarkers, as is the early diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma (CC), a complication of PSC.
