Primary Human Tissue Models for Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Liver Disease ‐ toward Streamlining Drug Discovery with Patient‐Derived Assays

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
The review provides a critical up‐to‐date overview of the current landscape of human in vitro models for fatty liver disease, including spheroids, organoids, organ‐on‐a‐chip systems, bioprinted liver constructs and precision‐cut liver slices. Their utility for faithfully modeling different stages of MASLD and MASH are evaluated and their compatibility ...

Diagnostic and prognostic performance of urinary neutrophil gelatinase‐associated lipocalin in patients with cirrhosis and acute kidney injury

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Diagnostic and prognostic ability of urinary NGAL in patients with cirrhosis and AKI. Abstract Background and Aims Acute kidney injury (AKI) commonly occurs in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. Urinary neutrophil gelatinase–associated lipocalin (uNGAL) could help discriminate between different etiologies of AKI.

Etiology and Clinical Outcome of Budd-Chiari Syndrome and Portal Vein Thrombosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The liver receives approximately one-third of the resting cardiac output. Blood flow to the liver is supplied by both an arterial (hepatic artery) and a venous (portal vein) system and three hepatic veins provide drainage of blood from the liver to the ...

Engineering Volumetric Tissue Analogs via Assembly of Endothelial Cell‐Covered Spheroidal Microtissues

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
An engineering strategy to fabricate highly vascularized volumetric tissues with capillary networks is developed. Endothelial cell‐covered spheroidal microtissues with high structural integrity are efficiently produced using bioprinting technology. These spheroidal microtissues are then assembled and cultured under perfusion conditions, resulting in ...

Assessment of a biofluid mechanics-based model for calculating portal pressure in canines

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research, 2020
Background Portal hypertension is a severe complication caused by various chronic liver diseases. The standard methods for detecting portal hypertension (hepatic venous pressure gradient and free portal pressure) are available in only a few hospitals due

Harnessing Next‐Generation 3D Cancer Models to Elucidate Tumor‐Microbiome Crosstalk

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Centralizes the microbiome within 3D tumor‐microbiome model platforms, including spheroids, organoids, 3D‐bioprinted constructs, and microfluidic chips, each enabling structured host‐tumor‐microbe studies. These systems support bacterial colonization, facilitating investigation of microbial impacts on tumor growth, immunity, and therapy. The microbiome

Gastric pneumatosis in a child with congenital duodenal obstruction

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2022
Pneumatosis of the foregut is an extremely rare finding which may indicate a potentially serious condition. In newborn the presence of gastric intramural gas is mainly associated to necrotizing enterocolitis and is considered a condition which correlates

Flow competition between hepatic arterial and portal venous flow during hypothermic machine perfusion preservation of porcine livers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) is regarded as a better preservation method for donor livers than cold storage. During HMP, livers are perfused through the inlet blood vessels, namely the hepatic artery (HA) and the portal vein (PO.
