Elevated Gastric Antrum Erosions in Portal Hypertension Patients: Peptic Disease or Mucosal Congestion?

The Korean Journal of Gastroenterology, 2017
Background/Aims: Portal hypertension (PH) is a syndrome characterized by chronic increase in the pressure gradient between the portal vein and inferior vena cava. Previous studies have suggested an increased frequency of antral elevated erosive gastritis

Mechanical Stretch Increases Expression of CXCL1 in Liver Sinusoidal Endothelial Cells to Recruit Neutrophils, Generate Sinusoidal Microthombi, and Promote Portal Hypertension.

Gastroenterology, 2019
BACKGROUND & AIMS Mechanical forces contribute to portal hypertension (PHTN) and fibrogenesis. We investigated the mechanisms by which forces are transduced by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) into pressure and matrix changes.

Mechanobiology of portal hypertension

JHEP Reports, 2023
The interplay between mechanical stimuli and cellular mechanobiology orchestrates the physiology of tissues and organs in a dynamic balance characterized by constant remodelling and adaptative processes. Environmental mechanical properties can be interpreted as a complex set of information and instructions that cells read continuously, and to which ...
