Apoptotic vesicles (apoVs) derived from fibroblast-converted hepatocyte-like cells effectively ameliorate liver fibrosis

open access: yesJournal of Nanobiotechnology
Liver fibrosis is a serious global health issue for which effective treatment remains elusive. Chemical-induced hepatocyte-like cells (ciHeps) have emerged as an appealing source for cell transplantation therapy, although they present several challenges ...

Aflatoxin and liver cancer

open access: yesBest Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology, 1999
This chapter reviews the data that have been accumulated implicating aflatoxin ingestion as an important risk factor in the aetiology of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Numerous epidemiological studies have observed a correlation between areas of high aflatoxin exposure and a high incidence of HCC. The use of experimental models and specific biomarkers

The ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy as guardians of the cellular proteome

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Perspective covers the three principles governing the crosstalk between the ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy in cellular proteostasis: (1) a shared ubiquitin code routing substrates via shuttle factors or autophagy receptors; (2) spatial compartmentalization into phase‐separated degradation hubs and organelle‐specific modules (exemplified

Low expression of WW domain‐containing oxidoreductase associates with hepatocellular carcinoma aggressiveness and recurrence after curative resection

open access: yesCancer Medicine, 2018
WW domain‐containing oxidoreductase (WWOX), which has a protein‐interaction domain and is regarded to be a tumor suppressor, has been known to play an important role in anti‐angiogenesis and cancer progression.

The burden of primary liver cancer and underlying etiologies from 1990 to 2015 at the global, regional, and national level: Results from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015

open access: yes, 2017
Importance Liver cancer is among the leading causes of cancer deaths globally. The most common causes for liver cancer include hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and alcohol use.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Prediction of post-hepatectomy HCC recurrence by circulating cancer stem cells

open access: yes, 2009
BACKGROUND: Recurrence of HCC frequently occurs within the first year after hepatectomy. Intrahepatic recurrence is due to new tumorogenic foci, whereas extrahepatic recurrence is probably related to circulating tumor cells shed from the primary tumor ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.
