Association Between Distance to the Transplant Center and Survival Following Living Donor Liver Transplantation

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study investigated the impacts of distance to transplant center on posttransplant survival following LDLT. Patients living further away from the transplant center had worse graft and patient survival rates than those of patients living closer, probably due to less frequency of follow‐up visits, and living > 40 miles from our treatment center was ...

Macrophage‐derived MLKL in alcohol‐associated liver disease: Regulation of phagocytosis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
EtOH causes leaky gut allowing bacteria and PAMPs into the liver, resulting in hepatic inflammation and injury. We demonstrate that LPS induces STAT1‐mediated expression and phosphorylation of MLKL in macrophages and identify a novel function that myeloid MLKL translocates to phagosomes and lysosomes and regulates phagocytosis, which contributes to the
