Optimized Ex Vivo Human Liver Slice Culture Maintains Extended Viability and Function for Hepatotoxicity Testing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 52, 18 September 2026.
An optimized ex vivo human liver slice culture system preserves tissue architecture, hepatocyte function, and immune‐stromal complexity for at least five days. By refining slice thickness, oxygenation, air‐liquid interface, and extracellular matrix support, the platform enables human‐relevant hepatotoxicity testing and mechanistic studies, offering a ...

Protocol for a Pilot Quasi‐Experimental Study on the Effect of Patient‐Centered Education on HIV Virological Outcomes Among Adult People Live With HIV‐HBV Co‐Infection in North‐West Ethiopia: Protocol for a Pilot Quasi‐Experimental Study

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) remains a major public health challenge in sub‐Saharan Africa, including Ethiopia. Adults living with HIV are at increased risk of liver‐related complications, poor treatment outcomes, and suboptimal virological control, particularly when adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) is inadequate ...

Systemic Inflammation and Subclinical Hepatic Synthetic Dysfunction Following Doxorubicin‐Cyclophosphamide Chemotherapy in Ethiopian Women With Breast Cancer: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Doxorubicin‐cyclophosphamide (AC) chemotherapy induces hepatotoxicity through oxidative stress and inflammatory pathway activation, but prospective African data are lacking and conventional liver tests may miss subclinical injury.

Patterns of Acute Liver Injury and Post‐Acute Liver Sequelae of COVID‐19

open access: yesLiver International Communications, Volume 7, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) is known to cause acute liver injury (ALI) in COVID‐19 patients. This study explores the association between ALI patterns and the occurrence of long‐term hepatic complications in patients with and without existing chronic liver disease (CLD).

Ursodeoxycholic Acid Reduces Angiotensin‐Converting Enzyme 2 Activity and Suppresses Cytokine Storm Syndrome in Patients With Coronavirus Disease 2019

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
SARS‐CoV‐2 infection causes COVID‐19 and stimulates immune cells, such as dendritic cells, monocytes, and macrophages, to increase levels of many cytokines. Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) inhibits farnesoid X receptor (FXR), resulting in a decrease in the activity of angiotensin‐converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), the main receptor on the membrane for SARS‐CoV‐2.
