Q fever outbreak in the terraced vineyards of Lavaux, Switzerland

open access: yesNew Microbes and New Infections, EarlyView., 2014
Abstract Coxiella burnetii infection (Q fever) is a widespread zoonosis with low endemicity in Switzerland, therefore no mandatory public report was required. A cluster of initially ten human cases of acute Q fever infections characterized by prolonged fever, asthenia and mild hepatitis occurred in 2012 in the terraced vineyard of Lavaux ...

MRI quantification of liver fibrosis using diamagnetic susceptibility: An ex-vivo feasibility study [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
In chronic liver disease, liver fibrosis develops as excessive deposition of extracellular matrix macromolecules, predominantly collagens, progressively form fibrous scars that disrupt the hepatic architecture, and fibrosis, iron, and fat are interrelated.

Alcoholic Liver Disease

open access: yesMedical Clinics of North America, 1989
Alcohol has been implicated in the genesis of liver disease for centuries. Significant progress has been made in our understanding of the pathogenesis of ALD. It is now apparent that both the consumption and the metabolism of alcohol promote the production of inflammatory mediators (cytokines) that result in hepatotoxicity and fibrogenesis.

Sex-biased mouse liver lincRNAs: validation and impact of mouse knockout models that perturb hepatic growth signaling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Sexual dimorphism has a broad impact on human health and disease, including autoimmune diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and liver diseases, specifically hepatocellular carcinoma.

Adverse prognosis gene expression patterns in metastatic castration‐resistant prostate cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We aggregated a cohort of 1012 mCRPC tissue samples from 769 patients and investigated the association of gene expression‐based pathways with clinical outcomes. Loss of AR signaling, high proliferation, and a glycolytic phenotype were independently prognostic for poor outcomes, and an adverse transcriptional feature score incorporating these pathways ...

CirrMRI600+: Large Scale MRI Collection and Segmentation of Cirrhotic Liver [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Liver cirrhosis, the end stage of chronic liver disease, is characterized by extensive bridging fibrosis and nodular regeneration, leading to an increased risk of liver failure, complications of portal hypertension, malignancy and death. Early diagnosis and management of end-stage cirrhosis are significant clinical challenges.

TOMM20 as a driver of cancer aggressiveness via oxidative phosphorylation, maintenance of a reduced state, and resistance to apoptosis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
TOMM20 increases cancer aggressiveness by maintaining a reduced state with increased NADH and NADPH levels, oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), and apoptosis resistance while reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Conversely, CRISPR‐Cas9 knockdown of TOMM20 alters these cancer‐aggressive traits.

Phenotypic continuum of NFU1‐related disorders

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 2025-2035, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Bi‐allelic variants in Iron–Sulfur Cluster Scaffold (NFU1) have previously been associated with multiple mitochondrial dysfunctions syndrome 1 (MMDS1) characterized by early‐onset rapidly fatal leukoencephalopathy. We report 19 affected individuals from 10 independent families with ultra‐rare bi‐allelic NFU1 missense variants associated with a
