Therapeutic effects of serum extracellular vesicles in liver fibrosis

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2018
The lack of approved therapies for hepatic fibrosis seriously limits medical management of patients with chronic liver disease. Since extracellular vesicles (EVs) function as conduits for intercellular molecular transfer, we investigated if EVs from ...

Complications of Liver Cirrhosis

, 2019
Liver cirrhosis is the end stage in a spectrum of progressive hepatic fibrosis. It may influence liver function and leads to portal hypertension. In compensated liver cirrhosis, liver function is still reasonably maintained, and no major complications have become manifest.

Pathogenesis of liver cirrhosis

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2014
Liver cirrhosis is the final pathological result of various chronic liver diseases, and fibrosis is the precursor of cirrhosis. Many types of cells, cytokines and miRNAs are involved in the initiation and progression of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. Activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) is a pivotal event in fibrosis.

Recent Advances in Functional Liver Volumetry: Emphasis on 99mTc‐GSA SPECT/CT Fusion Imaging

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Functional liver volumetry enables more accurate assessment of the future liver remnant by integrating anatomical and functional information, improving risk stratification before major hepatectomy. Among available techniques, 99mTc‐GSA SPECT/CT fusion imaging enables precise regional functional assessment and more reliable prediction of post ...

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

Hepatology, 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.

Transcriptome Analysis Revealed a Highly Connected Gene Module Associated With Cirrhosis to Hepatocellular Carcinoma Development

Frontiers in Genetics, 2019
IntroductionCirrhosis is one of the most important risk factors for development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Recent studies have shown that removal or well control of the underlying cause could reduce but not eliminate the risk of HCC.

Mitochondrial stress in advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis associated with chronic hepatitis B, chronic hepatitis C, or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Adaptive mitochondrial mechanisms allow mitochondrial resilience and prevent the worsening of fibrosis, while deregulation of these mechanisms promotes the progression from no/minimal‐mild (F0‐F2) fibrosis to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis (F3‐F4). Abstract Background and Aims Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection causes oxidative stress (OS) and alters ...

Serial Liver Stiffness Measurement and Serum Biomarkers Are Not Strong Predictors of the Regression of Fibrosis among Chronic Hepatitis B Patients Receiving Antiviral Therapy Based on Triple Liver Biopsies

Gut and Liver
Background/Aims: Noninvasive indexes can be used to diagnose and stage liver fibrosis caused by chronic hepatitis B (CHB). We aimed to evaluate whether changes in the liver stiffness measurement (LSM) and serum biomarkers can predict liver fibrosis ...
