Multicohort Validation of Gut Microbiome Signatures for Cholangiocarcinoma Diagnosis and Functional Characterization of Bifidobacterium Pseudocatenulatum

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study analyzes gut bacteria in cholangiocarcinoma patients, revealing distinct microbial signatures that enable accurate disease detection. Species‐based diagnostic models achieved over 98% accuracy in identifying cholangiocarcinoma and distinguished it from other liver diseases. The research demonstrates that specific beneficial bacteria suppress

Fine-mapping and molecular characterisation of primary sclerosing cholangitis genetic risk loci

Nature Communications
Genome-wide association studies of primary sclerosing cholangitis have identified 23 susceptibility loci. The majority of these loci reside in non-coding regions of the genome and are thought to exert their effect by perturbing the regulation of nearby ...

Etiology, Epidemiology, and Therapeutic Approaches for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis in the Context of Concurrent Non-specific Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

Journal of Education, Health and Sport
Introduction: Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic, idiopathic disease characterized by persistent and progressive inflammation of the intrahepatic and/or extrahepatic bile ducts. This leads to fibrosis, cholestatic complications, and liver

Efficacy of hepatic transplantation in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis [PDF]

, 1993
Controlled trials to assess the therapeutic benefit of orthotopic hepatic transplantation (OHTx) for primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) cannot be justified in view of improvement of patient survival after this operation since 1981.

Pharmacological interventions for primary sclerosing cholangitis: an attempted network meta-analysis. [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Primary sclerosing cholangitis is a chronic cholestatic liver disease that is associated with both hepatobiliary and colorectal malignancies, which can result in liver cirrhosis and its complications. The optimal pharmacological treatment for

Primary sclerosing cholangitis

Annual Review of Medicine, 1993
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is an inflammatory disease of unknown etiology. It affects the biliary system and is characterized by fibrosis and progressive obliteration of extrahepatic and intrahepatic bile ducts. Its frequent coexistence with antibody-mediated diseases, certain human leukocyte antigens, and altered lymphocyte mechanisms ...

Serum Bile Acids Are Useful Indicators of Intrahepatic Recurrence After Initial Curative Hepatectomy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Bile acids accumulation in hepatocytes causes liver damage and contributes to the development of hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the association between serum bile acid levels and postoperative intrahepatic recurrence in hepatocellular carcinoma remains unclear.
