Changes in SSM Assessed via 100 Hz‐VCTE Are Associated With Acute HVPG‐Response to i.v. Propranolol: A European Multicentre Study

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The acute hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG)‐response to i.v. propranolol predicts outcomes in patients with advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD) and clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH). While non‐invasive tests (NIT) to monitor non‐selective beta‐blocker (NSBB)‐induced HVPG changes are lacking, spleen stiffness ...

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) remains difficult to study mechanistically in patients because disease initiation is rarely observed directly, the relevant autoantigens differ across subsets, and clinically meaningful outcomes such as chronic inflammation, fibrosis, relapse, and treatment response evolve over time.

Splenic B Cells Accumulate and Adopt a Pro‐Inflammatory Phenotype to Accelerate Fibrosis in a CCl4‐Induced Liver Fibrosis Model

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 14, 31 July 2026.
Splenic B cells accumulate and adopt pro‐inflammatory phenotype via activation of p38 MAPK/NF‐κB pathway, thereby accelerating CCl₄‐induced hepatic fibrosis. ABSTRACT The spleen plays a significant role in hepatic fibrosis progression. B cells are the main splenic lymphocytes, but their specific contributions and underlying mechanisms remain unclear ...
