Contemporary management of pain in cirrhosis: Toward precision therapy for pain

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Chronic pain is highly prevalent in patients with cirrhosis and is associated with poor health‐related quality of life and poor functional status. However, there is limited guidance on appropriate pain management in this population, and pharmacologic treatment can be harmful, leading to adverse outcomes, such as gastrointestinal bleeding ...

Constitutive Activation of the Nlrc4 Inflammasome Prevents Hepatic Fibrosis and Promotes Hepatic Regeneration after Partial Hepatectomy

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2015
TThe molecular mechanisms responsible for the development of hepatic fibrosis are not fully understood. The Nlrc4 inflammasome detects cytosolic presence of bacterial components, activating inflammatory cytokines to facilitate clearance of pathogens and ...

Circulating TREM2 as a noninvasive diagnostic biomarker for NASH in patients with elevated liver stiffness

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Reliable noninvasive biomarkers are an unmet clinical need for the diagnosis of NASH. This study investigates the diagnostic accuracy of the circulating triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (plasma TREM2) as a biomarker for NASH in patients with NAFLD and elevated liver stiffness.

Comparison of the Bioactivation Potential of the Antidepressant and Hepatotoxin Nefazodone with Aripiprazole, a Structural Analog and Marketed Drug

open access: yes, 2020
: In vitro metabolism/bioactivation of structurally related central nervous system agents nefazodone (hepatotoxin) and aripiprazole (nonhepatotoxin) were undertaken in human liver microsomes in an attempt to understand the differences in toxicological ...

Natural Product Toosendanin Suppresses the Malignant Development of Skin Melanoma by Targeting BNC2 for Degradation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
BNC2 exhibits context‐dependent opposing functions across multiple cancer types. This study reveals BNC2 as an oncogenic driver of melanoma proliferation and metastasis through transcriptional activation of PIK3CA. The natural compound TSN simultaneously degrades BNC2 and its oncogenic partner SMAD3 via CRBN‐dependent ubiquitination.

Multi‐Technique Integration Identifies O‐GlcNAc Transferase in Fibroblast‐Like Synoviocytes as a Therapeutic Target for Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
AI‑guided single‑cell transcriptomics identifies OGT as a key regulator enriched in rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast‑like synoviocytes (RA‐FLSs). Inflammatory stimuli activate the OGT–SAP130 axis, which modulates the H3K27ac/H3K27me3 balance and epigenetically silences BTG2, promoting aggressive transformation of RA‑FLSs.

Enhanced mitochondrial activity reshapes a gut microbiota profile that delays NASH progression

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Improved mitochondrial activity, due to the lack of methylation‐controlled J protein (MCJ), creates a specific microbiota signature that when transferred through cecal microbiota transplantation delays NASH progression by restoring the gut‐liver axis and enhancing hepatic fatty acid oxidation.

Uptake of the cyanobacterial hepatotoxin microcystin-RR by submergent macrophyte Vallisneria natans (Lour.) Hara.

open access: yes, 2004
Recently, heavy blooms frequently occured in Dianchi Lake and Microcystis is the main algae involved in blooms. Microcystis produces a family of related cyclic hepatopeptides( microcystins, MC). These toxins are severely hepatotoxic.

Removal of cyanotoxins by cyclodextrin complex, titanium dioxide photocatalysis and C₆₀ photocataly

open access: yes, 2010
The presence of cyanotoxins in surface and drinking water is a serious threat to the environment and human health. The most dangerous and widespread cyanotoxins include the microcystin and nodularin families (hepatotoxin), domoic acid (neurotoxin), and ...
