IGFBP4 is a Metric for Primary Biliary Cholangitis and Attenuates Biliary Epithelial Cell Injury
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Immune‐mediated bile duct injury is the primary histological feature of autoimmune cholestatic liver diseases. Macrophages, the most abundant immune cell population in the liver, have been postulated to play a critical role in biliary repair. However, it is unclear whether activated macrophages interact with injured biliary

ABSTRACT Background & Aims Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) go along with reduced health‐related quality of life (HRQOL). Variant syndromes, that is, conditions with features of both PBC/PSC and AIH, are associated with higher clinical complexity and worse prognosis. Studies on HRQOL

Genetic variants underlying precancerous conditions of hepatocellular carcinoma
Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common form of liver cancer, accounting for 80% of cases worldwide. While chronic hepatitis B and C infections remain primary risk factors, emerging evidence highlights the increasing contributions of metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and alcohol‐associated liver disease

Stem Cell Therapy for Inflammatory Diseases: Progress, Challenges, and Future Directions
Stem cells offer multifaceted therapeutic approaches for inflammatory diseases, each exhibiting distinct therapeutic properties. Hematopoietic stem cells, primarily through hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), can effectively remodel the immune environment, showing particular promise in treating genetically linked cases.
