Attacking the public health crisis of hepatocellular carcinoma at its roots

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract As the third most common cause of cancer‐related death worldwide with significant mortality rates in the United States, hepatocellular carcinoma has strong association with cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) with a growing at‐risk population from the rise in chronic liver disease from alcohol use and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

Role of antiviral therapy in the natural history of hepatitis B virus-related chronic liver disease [PDF]

, 2015
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a dynamic state of interactions among HBV, hepatocytes, and the host immune system. Natural history studies of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection have shown an association between active viral replication and adverse

Management of HBV and HBV/HDV-Associated Liver Cirrhosis [PDF]

Visceral Medicine, 2016
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and hepatitis delta virus (HDV) co-infection lead to liver cirrhosis, hepatic decompensation, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We review the current knowledge of the management of HBV mono-infection and HBV/HDV ...

Health disparities in chronic liver disease

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract The syndemic of hazardous alcohol consumption, opioid use, and obesity has led to important changes in liver disease epidemiology that have exacerbated health disparities. Health disparities occur when plausibly avoidable health differences are experienced by socially disadvantaged populations.

Blocking entry of hepatitis B and D viruses to hepatocytes as a novel immunotherapy for treating chronic infections [PDF]

, 2021
Background. Chronic hepatitis B and D virus (HBV/HDV) infections can cause cancer. Current HBV therapy using nucleoside analogues (NAs) is life-long and reduces but does not eliminate the risk of cancer.

HBV-Induced Immune Imbalance in the Development of HCC

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is one of the high-risk factors for human HCC. Despite the integration of virus DNA and the oncoprotein HBx, chronic necroinflammation and hepatocellular regeneration account for hepatocarcinogenesis.

HBV virological assessment

Journal of Hepatology, 2006
Management of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infected patients involves serological diagnosis, quantitation of HBV-DNA and measurement of HBV drug resistance. Different serological markers such as HBsAg, anti-HBs, anti-HBc (total and IgM), HBeAg and anti-HBe are assessed by immunoassays in order to define the infection status. The emergence of surface mutants

Diagnostic and prognostic performance of urinary neutrophil gelatinase‐associated lipocalin in patients with cirrhosis and acute kidney injury

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Diagnostic and prognostic ability of urinary NGAL in patients with cirrhosis and AKI. Abstract Background and Aims Acute kidney injury (AKI) commonly occurs in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. Urinary neutrophil gelatinase–associated lipocalin (uNGAL) could help discriminate between different etiologies of AKI.

TP53 R249S mutation in hepatic organoids captures the predisposing cancer risk

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
The systematic approach in elucidating the gain‐of‐function (GOF) roles of TP53 mutations in early liver carcinogenesis. Unique downstream targets of TP53 L3 mutations were identified from chormatin immunoprecipitation sequencing in HCC cell lines, followed by a series of validation assays to substantiate the exclusive transcriptional regulations ...
