The Role and Therapeutic Potential of Voltage‐Gated Potassium Channel Kv1.3 in Metabolism‐Related Disorders

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past three decades, the global burden of common metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and atherosclerosis has steadily increased, becoming a serious public health issue that poses a major threat to human health worldwide. Potassium channels, particularly the voltage‐gated Kv1.3 subtype, serve as critical regulators of cellular

Subchronic Exposure to Arsenic and Nickel Triggers Nitrosative Stress and Histological Alterations in the Rat Liver

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental exposure to heavy metals poses a threat to human health. Several studies documented harmful effects on the liver after arsenic and nickel exposure at concentrations beyond permissible limits. Nevertheless, the impact of a simultaneous exposure to both elements on hepatic biochemistry and histology remains unelucidated. Therefore,

Factors Associated With Liver Fibrosis in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and the Predictive Value of CHI3L1

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
In a retrospective cohort of 236 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM), metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) was common and significant fibrosis (liver stiffness measurement [LSM] ≥8 kPa) was frequently observed. Serum chitinase‐3‐like protein 1 (CHI3L1) correlated with LSM (r = 0.48) and remained an independent predictor of ...

From HBV to MASLD Cirrhosis: Mechanistic Insights and Therapeutic Strategies

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
This review examines the epidemiological shift from hepatitis B virus (HBV) to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) as the leading cause of cirrhosis globally. It highlights the distinct pathogenic mechanisms between HBV and MASLD cirrhosis and discusses evolving diagnostic tools and therapeutic strategies tailored to the ...

Uric Acid in Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
MASLD is the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide, yet effective pharmacological treatments remain limited. Hyperuricemia is now recognized as a key driver of hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis, with elevated serum uric acid levels independently predicting hepatocellular carcinoma and liver‐related mortality.

Diverse immunological roles of liver‐resident immune cells in liver diseases

Precision Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
Based on their origin and functional characteristics, LRICs can be classified into four categories. These cells differ in the focus of their immune functions in liver diseases, yet all exhibit the characteristic of functional bidirectionality.
