Galectin-1 is essential for efficient liver regeneration following hepatectomy [PDF]
Galectin-1 (Gal1) is a known immune/inflammatory regulator which actsboth extracellularly and intracellularly, modulating innate and adaptive immuneresponses. Here, we explored the role of Gal1 in liver regeneration using 70% partial hepatectomy (PHx) of

Preservation of the retrohepatic vena cava during recipient hepatectomy for orthotopic transplantation of the liver. [PDF]
A modified final phase of recipient hepatectomy in orthotopic hepatic transplantation is presented. It involves preservation of the retrohepatic vena cava "in toto" to decrease the risk of injury to the adrenal gland and assure better control of the ...

Microbiota and bile acid profiles in retinoic acid-primed mice that exhibit accelerated liver regeneration. [PDF]
Background & aimsAll-trans Retinoic acid (RA) regulates hepatic lipid and bile acid homeostasis. Similar to bile acid (BA), RA accelerates partial hepatectomy (PHx)-induced liver regeneration.

FK 506 pre-treatment is associated with reduced levels of tumor necrosis factor and interleukin 6 following hepatic ischemia/reperfusion [PDF]
Using a rat model, the effect of pre-treatment with FK 506 on hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury was investigated. All control animals died within 72 h of the ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Alopecia, ascites, and incomplete regeneration after 85 to 90 per cent liver resection [PDF]
A nineteen year old female underwent 85 to 90 per cent partial hepatectomy to treat a minimal deviation hepatoma. Observations afterwards suggested that the limit of resection compatible with survival had been reached.

Effect of cyclosporine on hepatic energy status and on fructose metabolism after portacaval shunt in dog as monitored by phosphorus‐31 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in vivo [PDF]
The effect of cyclosporin A on the hepatic energy status and intracellular pH of the liver and its response to a fructose challenge has been investigated using in vivo phosphorus‐31 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in dogs.

Major hepatic resection and portal pressure [PDF]
Although other reports have stressed the inevitability of portal hypertension and splanchnic pooling following major liver resections, clinical observations during 30 major hepatic resections and measurements of portal pressure in three consecutive ...

Functional evaluation of hepatic parenchyma with dynamic tests (Indocyanine green and Hippurate ratio) in patients with HCC [PDF]
Our aim was to assess hepatic functionality in patients with HCC and candidate for liver resection. We used dynamic tests of liver functionality Indocyanine green (ICG) and Hippurate ratio, for the evaluation of surgical risk and postoperative clinical
