MicroRNAs in fibrosis: opportunities and challenges [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNAs that mediate mRNA cleavage, translational repression or mRNA destabilisation and are around 22-25 nucleotides in length via partial complementary binding to the 3' untranslated region in target transcripts ...

Analysis of the effects of xanthohumol on hepatic homeostasis, inflammation, fibrosis and cancerogenesis [PDF]
Xanthohumol is the major prenylated chalcone found in hops, and it has been shown to exhibit various biological effects. However, xanthohumol effects on liver cells or in liver diseases, respectively, are widely unknown.

Adipokines and redox signaling: impact on fatty liver disease. [PDF]
Adipokines (adipose tissue cytokines) are polypeptide factors secreted by adipose tissue in a highly regulated manner. The 'classical' adipokines (leptin, adiponectin, and resistin) are expressed only by adipocytes, but other adipokines have been shown ...

Microcomputed tomography with diffraction-enhanced imaging for morphologic characterization and quantitative evaluation of microvessel of hepatic fibrosis in rats. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:[corrected] Hepatic fibrosis can lead to deformation of vessel morphology and structure. In the present feasibility study, high-resolution computed tomography (CT) using diffraction-enhanced imaging (DEI) was used to represent three ...

Fibrosis and hepatic regeneration mechanism [PDF]
Liver cirrhosis is the final stage of continuous hepatic inflammatory activity derived by viral, metabolic or autoimmune origin. In the last years, cirrhosis was considered a unique and static condition; recently was accepted some patients subgroups with different liver injury degrees that coexist under the same diagnosis, with implications about the ...
