Lysosomal unesterified cholesterol content correlates with liver cell death in murine Niemann-Pick type C disease

Journal of Lipid Research, 2007
Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) disease is a multisystem disorder resulting from mutations in the NPC1 gene that encodes a protein involved in intracellular cholesterol trafficking. Significant liver dysfunction is frequently seen in patients with this disease.

Klippel‐Trénaunay‐Weber Syndrome: Prenatal Diagnosis and Review of the Literature

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 535-546, March/April 2025.
This meta‐analysis demonstrates the high diagnostic accuracy of SZ‐CEUS for differentiating between malignant and benign focal liver lesions, as well as for HCC from non‐HCC lesions. The study shows better performance for smaller lesions and those with a higher proportion of malignancy.

Myristic acid potentiates palmitic acid-induced lipotoxicity and steatohepatitis associated with lipodystrophy by sustaning de novo ceramide synthesis. [PDF]

, 2015
Palmitic acid (PA) induces hepatocyte apoptosis and fuels de novo ceramide synthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Myristic acid (MA), a free fatty acid highly abundant in copra/palmist oils, is a predictor of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and

A Comparative Study of Ultrasonography and CT Venography in the Diagnosis of Budd‐Chiari Syndrome

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Budd‐Chiari syndrome (BCS) is characterized by hepatic venous outflow obstruction from the hepatic veins to the junction of the inferior vena cava (IVC) and right atrium. Ultrasound (US) and CT venography (CTV) are used as imaging techniques for the diagnosis of BCS, and We compared the diagnostic efficacy of the two modalities. The results showed that

Liver disease in Shwachman‐Diamond syndrome: A comprehensive characterization across the age spectrum

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Shwachman‐Diamond syndrome (SDS) is an inherited bone marrow failure disorder, and its hepatic phenotype is poorly defined. Our objective was to systematically characterize the prevalence, features, and outcomes of liver injury in a multicenter SDS cohort. Methods Retrospective registry study of 171 patients with biallelic Shwachman‐
