Overview of CircRNAs Roles and Mechanisms in Liver Fibrosis
Biomolecules, 2023 Liver fibrosis represents the reversible pathological process with the feature of the over-accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins within the liver, which results in the deposition of fibrotic tissues and liver dysfunction. Circular noncoding

Delayed Liver Regeneration after Partial Hepatectomy in Aged Nos2 Knockout Mice
Cell Journal, 2017 Objective Patients over 60 years of age have higher mortality and morbidity after major liver resections. Nitric oxide (NO) derived from the catalytic activity of Nos2 plays a beneficial role in liver regeneration (LR) after partial hepatectomy (PH). In
