Role of antiviral therapy in the natural history of hepatitis B virus-related chronic liver disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a dynamic state of interactions among HBV, hepatocytes, and the host immune system. Natural history studies of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection have shown an association between active viral replication and adverse

Variations in Innate Immune Cell Subtypes Correlate with Epigenetic Clocks, Inflammaging and Health Outcomes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uses a high‐resolution DNA methylation reference panel for 19 immune cell‐types, as well as transcriptomic, metabolomic, and large population cohort data to show that age‐related epigenetic heterogeneity within monocytes correlates with inflammaging, biological age, and all‐causemortality, and does so more strongly than existing monocyte ...

Orthotopic liver transplantation for alcoholic cirrhosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
Fifteen patients with Laennec's cirrhosis underwent orthotopic liver transplantation between 1963 and the end of 1979. The first eight patients died perioperatively or within two months, but four of the next seven patients had long survival; three are ...

Diabetes, Plasma Glucose, and Incidence of Fatty Liver, Cirrhosis, and Liver Cancer: A Prospective Study of 0.5 Million People

open access: yesHepatology, 2018
The prevalence of diabetes is increasing rapidly in China. However, evidence is limited about its effects on chronic liver diseases and liver cancer.

Src Reduces Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Generation and Resolves Acute Organ Damage

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Src reduces neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) generation and resolves acute organ damage. Src directly activates RAF1 by regulating phosphorylation at the Ser 621 site and mediates the RAF/MEK/ERK pathway, thereby affecting the intracellular ROS production. Alternatively, Src activates the RAF1/MEK/ERK pathway by mediating PKC phosphorylation.

TGF-β1 Induces the Dual Regulation of Hepatic Progenitor Cells with Both Anti- and Proliver Fibrosis

open access: yesStem Cells International, 2016
Transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) plays a central role in hepatic progenitor cells- (HPCs-) mediated liver repair and fibrosis. However, different effects of TGF-β1 on progenitor cells have not been described.

Endocannabinoid receptor blockade increases hepatocyte growth factor and reduces insulin levels in obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
There is evidence from animal and in-vitro studies that activation of the endocannabinoid system (EC) through cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB-1) is associated with liver injury, inflammation and hepatocellular carcinoma.1 Data suggests endogenous cannabinoids

Heterozygous carriage of the alpha1-antitrypsin Pi*Z variant increases the risk to develop liver cirrhosis

open access: yesGut, 2018
Objective Homozygous alpha1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency increases the risk for developing cirrhosis, whereas the relevance of heterozygous carriage remains unclear. Hence, we evaluated the impact of the two most relevant AAT variants (‘Pi*Z’ and ‘Pi*S’),

NamiRNA‐Enhancer Network: The Changing Era Challenge and Chance of miRNA

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
MiRNAs (miRNAs) regulate diverse biological processes across species. Unlike canonical miRNA‐mediated gene repression, Nuclear Activating miRNAs (NamiRNAs) can efficiently upregulate gene expression by targeting enhancers. This review systematically summarizes recent advances in NamiRNA research, elucidates the theory of NamiRNA‐Enhancer‐mediated Gene ...
