Alcohol Prohibition and Cirrhosis [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper uses state-level data on cirrhosis death rates to examine the impact of state prohibitions, pre-1920 federal anti-alcohol policies, and constitutional prohibition on cirrhosis State prohibitions had a minimal impact on cirrhosis, especially ...

Defect‐Engineered BiO2‐X Nanosheets Mediate Sono‐Thermomechanical ECM Remodeling for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Herein, an ultrasound‐responsive BiO2‐X/siFn1 nanoplatform is developed to overcome anti‐PD‐1 resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma. Upon ultrasound irradiation, the platform downregulates fibronectin expression, while its sonothermal effect softens the dense extracellular matrix and activates antitumor immunity in the tumor microenvironment, thereby ...

Fatty liver disease is not associated with increased mortality in the elderly: A prospective cohort study

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Graphical abstract summarizing the study design, main results and key findings Abstract Background and Aims Fatty liver disease (FLD) has been associated with excess mortality. Screening for hepatic steatosis (HS) in patients with metabolic dysfunction is therefore recommended by several guidelines, despite a paucity of evidence on the clinical ...

Predictive model of in-hospital mortality in liver cirrhosis patients with hyponatremia: an artificial neural network approach

open access: yesScientific Reports
Hyponatremia can worsen the outcomes of patients with liver cirrhosis. However, it remains unclear about how to predict the risk of death in cirrhotic patients with hyponatremia. Patients with liver cirrhosis and hyponatremia were screened.

An Optimized Freeze‐Dry Multimodal Workflow for Sequential Micro‐CT Imaging, Histology, and Molecular Profiling: A Use Case in Human Liver Fibrosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Optimized freeze‐drying and eosin staining deliver artifact‐free micro‐CT images of liver tissue at near‐histological detail, then hand the same specimen back for sectioning, staining, and sequencing. Fibrotic volume distinguishes normal liver from cirrhosis, while preserved RNA reveals inflammatory gene upregulation—one biopsy, three dimensions, and a

ALK1 controls hepatic vessel formation, angiodiversity, and angiocrine functions in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia of the liver

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Hepatic endothelial Alk1 signaling protects from development of vascular malformations while maintaining organ‐specific endothelial differentiation and angiocrine portmanteau of the names Wingless and Int‐1 signaling. Abstract Background and Aims In hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), severe liver vascular malformations are associated with ...

CAR‐Engineered Cell Therapies Beyond Cancer: Reprogramming Fibrosis and Immune‐Mediated Inflammation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CAR‐engineered cell therapies are expanding beyond cancer toward immune resetting, pathological‐cell clearance, matrix remodeling, and microenvironmental reprogramming in autoimmune, inflammatory, and fibrotic diseases. This Review compares CAR‐T, CAR‐macrophage, and CAR‐NK platforms and proposes controllable spatiotemporal reprogramming to align ...

Essential lipid autacoids rewire mitochondrial energy efficiency in metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Increased liver content of DHA‐derived small lipid autacoids (i.e resolvin D1 and maresin 1) associates with enhanced mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid β‐oxidation and bioenergetic metabolic flux. These features provide hepatic protection from steatotic, pro‐inflammatory and fibrogenic insults.

Ectopic Varices in Liver Cirrhosis

open access: yes, 2020
Large portosystemic venous collaterals pathways can be found in any part of the gastrointestinal tract, but when these veins are not in the gastroesophageal region they are denominated ectopic varices (EcV).
