The uncoordinated-5 homolog B receptor affects hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury [PDF]
Recent evidence has demonstrated additional roles for the neuronal guidance protein receptor UNC5B outside the nervous system. Given the fact that ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) of the liver is a common source of liver dysfunction and the role of ...

The contact system in liver injury [PDF]
AbstractCoagulation is controlled by a delicate balance of prothrombotic and antithrombotic mechanisms, to prevent both excessive blood loss from injured vessels and pathologic thrombosis. The liver plays a pivotal role in hemostasis through the synthesis of plasma coagulation factors and their inhibitors that, in addition to thrombosis and hemostasis,

Liver test abnormalities are commonly found in ambulatory patients now that these tests are routinely included in chemistry panels. The majority of asymptomatic patients with liver test abnormalities have no evidence of liver disease. Recognizing the different patterns of liver injury can be used as a guide to direct further evaluation of diseases that

A novel technique for selective NF-kappa B inhibition in Kupffer cells: contrary effects in fulminant hepatitis and ischaemia-reperfusion. [PDF]
Background and aims: The transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) has risen as a promising target for anti-inflammatory therapeutics. In the liver, however, NFkB inhibition mediates both damaging and protective effects.

Drug-induced liver injury [PDF]
Drug-induced liver injury is estimated to have an incidence of 14–19 cases per 100 000 individuals.[1][1],[2][2] Although asymptomatic liver enzyme elevation is the most common presentation, drug-induced liver injury is the most common cause of acute liver failure in most Western countries,
