This study investigates how donor age and cold ischemia time influence liver perfusion parameters and injury markers. Older livers are more susceptible to longer ischemia times displaying more tissue damage, and higher expression of oxidative stress and apoptosis‐related proteins than livers with shorter ischemia times.

Multiple acquired portosystemic shunts in a cat secondary to chronic diaphragmatic rupture [PDF]
A cat with a chronic diaphragmatic rupture presented with neurological signs, including twitching and focal seizures. Blood ammonia level was markedly elevated and therefore neurological signs were thought to be related to hepatic encephalopathy ...

Integrated omics analysis of matched primary and liver metastatic NPC tumors reveals a unique NOTCH1+ CSC subpopulation exhibiting enhanced stemness properties and tumorigenic capacity. With in vitro and in vivo assays, exosomal transfer of tumor‐derived FTO from NOTCH1+ cells to the endothelium promotes vascular permeability and metastatic potential ...

Geometrically Encoded Positioning of Introns, Intergenic Segments, and Exons in the Human Genome
This study introduces a new hypothesis: exons, introns, and intergenic segments are non‐random projections of the functional layers of 3D structure of chromatin packing domains. Evidence is presented that this “geometric code” may encode volumetric structure, reconciling epigenetic patterns, correlates with oncogenic mutations, acting as a potential ...

Xenogeneic, extracorporeal liver perfusion in primates improves the ratio of branched-chain amino acids to aromatic amino acids (Fischer's ratio) [PDF]
In fulminant hepatic failure (FHF), the development of hepatic encephalopathy is associated with grossly abnormal concentrations of plasma amino acids (PAA).

This study developed a dynamic DNA nano‐antioxidant (DDN) for Galectin‐3 siRNA delivery, specifically targeting hepatic macrophages to suppress ROS‐driven fibrosis. DDN enhanced hepatic accumulation, restored NRF2 signaling, and attenuated oxidative stress, collagen deposition, and fibrotic progression in a CCl4‐induced cirrhosis model, demonstrating ...
