Deficiency of NOX1 or NOX4 Prevents Liver Inflammation and Fibrosis in Mice through Inhibition of Hepatic Stellate Cell Activation. [PDF]
, 2015 Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase (NOX) play a key role in liver injury and fibrosis. Previous studies demonstrated that GKT137831, a dual NOX1/4 inhibitor, attenuated liver fibrosis in mice as ...

Assessing Non-Invasive Liver Function in Patients With Intestinal Failure Receiving Total Parenteral Nutrition-Results From the Prospective PNLiver Trial [PDF]
, 2020 Liver abnormalities in intestinal failure (IF) patients receiving parenteral nutrition (PN) can progress undetected by standard laboratory tests to intestinal failure associated liver disease (IFALD). The aim of this longitudinal study is to evaluate the

Liver Anatomy: Microcirculation of the Liver [PDF]
Seminars in Interventional Radiology, 2008 Comprehension of the structural and functional characteristics of the hepatic microcirculation can help improve the design, planning, and practice of imaging-guided treatment for hepatic tumors and for portal vein embolization (PVE). The hepatic microcirculation derives dual blood supply from the portal vein and the hepatic artery.
