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

open access: yesHepatology, 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 ...

Emergence of highly profibrotic and proinflammatory Lrat+Fbln2+ HSC subpopulation in alcoholic hepatitis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Lrat+ quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSC) give rise to Lrat+Fbln2+ activated HSC (aHSC) in alcohol‐associated hepatitis and this subpopulation is highly profibrotic, inflammatory, and immunoregulatory based on their single cell transcriptomic profile. Abstract Background and Aims Relative roles of HSCs and portal fibroblasts in alcoholic hepatitis (

Collagenase treatment reduces the anisotropy of ultrasonic backscatter in rat myocardium by reducing collagen crosslinks

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2023
Dysregulation of collagen deposition, degradation, and crosslinking in the heart occur in response to increased physiological stress. Collagen content has been associated with ultrasonic backscatter (brightness), and we have shown that the anisotropy of ...

Role of Myofibroblasts and Collagen Quality in Elaboration of Debatable Nature of Odontogenic Keratocyst [PDF]

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Histology, 2021
Background: Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is one of the debatable odontogenic lesions. The need for more researches in order to determine the true nature of this lesion was one of the WHO’s recommendations in 2016.

Diagnostic Performance of Transient Elastography in Biliary Atresia Among Infants With Cholestasis

open access: yesHepatology Communications, 2021
Biliary atresia (BA) is a challenging liver disease in infancy. Early diagnosis of BA is important for timely hepatoportoenterostomy. We evaluated the age‐specific diagnostic performance of transient elastography (TE) with a liver stiffness measurement ...

Collagen fibers in oral submucous fibrosis - A polarizing microscopy study using two special stains

open access: yesIndian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2019
Background: Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF), a well-recognized oral potentially malignant disorder, results due to increased collagen production and reduced collagen degradation.

Correlation Between Collagen Fibers and Radiographic Patterns of Keratocystic Odontogenic Tumour [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2014
Background: WHO has recently renamed odontogenic keratocyst as keratocystic odontogenic tumour (KCOT) depending on its tumour like behaviour. Aim: To quantitate and qualitate different types of collagen fibers in KCOT using picrosirius red stain ...

New approaches to studying morphological details of intramolluscan stages of Angiostrongylus vasorum

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2020
Angiostrongylus vasorum is a pulmonary artery parasite of domestic and wild canid. On molluscs, intermediate host, first stage larvae (L1) are found after the first day of infection, in the 8th L2 and in the 30 th L3.
