Partial portal vein arterialization during living-donor liver transplantation: a case report

open access: yesSurgical Case Reports, 2020
Background Hepatic artery thrombosis can lead to graft loss associated with severe hepatic infarction or bile duct ischemia. When anatomical hepatic artery reconstruction is impossible in liver transplantation or hepato-pancreatic biliary surgery, portal

SerpinA3 is an Endogenous TGF‐β Receptor Antagonist that Attenuates Cardiac Fibroblast Activation and Fibrotic Remodeling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
SerpinA3 acts as an endogenous TGF‐β receptor antagonist that binds to the extracellular domain of TGFR‐1, thereby preventing TGFR‐1–TGFR‐2 complex formation. This receptor‐level blockade suppresses TGF‐β/Smad2/3 signaling, attenuates cardiac fibroblast activation, and extracellular matrix deposition, and ultimately alleviates pressure overload–induced

Right Gastroepiploic Artery as an Alternative for Arterial Reconstruction in Living Donor Liver Transplantation

open access: yesCase Reports in Hepatology, 2014
Background. An adequate blood flow is directly related to graft survival in living donor liver transplantation. However, in some cases, unfavorable conditions prevent the use of the hepatic artery for arterial reconstruction.

Endovascular treatment of hepatic arterioportal fistula complicated with giant portal vein aneurysm via percutaneous transhepatic US guided hepatic artery access: a case report and review of the literature

open access: yesCVIR Endovascular, 2019
Background Hepatic arterioportal fistulas are rare, abnormal, direct communications between hepatic artery and portal venous system. Treatment options shifted from surgery to endovascular interventions. Catheterization may be challenging.

A Metal‐Polyphenol Self‐Assembled Coated 3D Sponge With Mild Photothermal Antibacterial, Exudate‐Controlling, and Immunomodulatory Functions for Hemostasis and Chronic Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A thrombin‐functionalized copper‐polydopamine nanofiber sponge integrates rapid hemostasis, mild photothermal antibacterial therapy, stimulus‐responsive Cu2+ release, chemodynamic oxidative stress, and macrophage immunomodulation. This multifunctional dressing suppresses infection, regulates inflammation, promotes angiogenesis and re‐epithelialization,

Successful Endovascular Rescue of a Recurrent Hepatic Artery Graft Thrombosis after Liver Retransplantation

open access: yesJournal of Endovascular Resuscitation and Trauma Management
Hepatic artery thrombosis (HAT) is a severe and potentially graft-threatening complication after liver transplantation, associated with biliary ischemia, graft failure, and high mortality.

Cytokine Pathways Driving Diverse Tissue Pathologies in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a complex systemic disorder characterized primarily by articular inflammation and destruction with associated functional loss and reduced quality of life. RA is also associated with extra‐articular disease, such as that of the lung, with potentially devastating clinical consequences. The critical importance of comorbidities,

Navigating complex arterial reconstruction in living donor liver transplantation: the role of the splenic artery as a viable conduit

open access: yesBMC Surgery
Background In living donor liver transplantation (LDLT), maintaining hepatic arterial flow is critical for graft survival. Alternative methods are required when the recipient’s hepatic artery is unsuitable due to extensive dissection or inadequate flow ...

Higher Complement C4 Gene Copy Number Constitutes a Shared Genetic Risk Factor for Giant Cell Arteritis and IgA Vasculitis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Low copy number (CN) of complement C4 isoforms and high CN of retroviral HERV‐K elements are known risk factors for many immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), often showing sex‐biased effects. Here, we assessed whether CN variation within the C4 gene contributes to giant cell arteritis (GCA) and IgA vasculitis (IgAV), two complex ...
