Genome-wide DNA methylation dynamics in carbon tetrachloride-induced mice liver fibrosis [PDF]
Objective(s): Many persistent harmful stimuli can result in chronic liver diseases, which lead to about 2 million deaths per year in the whole world. Liver fibrosis was found to exist in all kinds of chronic liver diseases.

Pulmonary Hypertension in Patients with Chronic Fibrosing Idiopathic Interstitial Pneumonias [PDF]
Background Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a common finding in patients with chronic fibrosing idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIP). Little is known about the response to pulmonary vasodilator therapy in this patient population.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive devastating lung disease with substantial morbidity. It is associated with cough, dyspnea and impaired quality of life. If left untreated, IPF has a median survival of 3 years. IPF affects ∼3 million people worldwide, with increasing incidence in older patients. The current concept of pathogenesis is

Fat storage-inducing transmembrane proteins: beyond mediating lipid droplet formation
Fat storage-inducing transmembrane proteins (FITMs) were initially identified in 2007 as members of a conserved endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident transmembrane protein gene family, and were found to be involved in lipid droplet (LD) formation. Recently,
