Background: Hepatic steatosis is a major concern in living donor liver transplantation. Factors affecting hepatic functional status after a donor right hepatectomy (with the middle hepatic vein included in the graft) with a focus on changes owing to ...

Engraftment of sheep splenic lymphocytes into NBSGW mice and application in Brucella infection
A sheep splenocyte‐reconstituted mouse model (Sh‐Spl mice) was established via intravenous injection of sheep splenic lymphocytes into immunodeficient mice to evaluate Brucella infection. Abstract Background The development of immune reconstituted xenograft mouse models has addressed the limitations imposed by interspecies immunological differences in ...

RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease
RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease. Abstract Background and Aims Receptor‐interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) mediates NAFLD progression, but its metabolic function is unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of RIPK3 in modulating mitochondria function, coupled with lipid droplet (LD)

Examples of histopathology-proven steatosis grades.
From left to right with histopathology-proven steatosis grades: 1) 62-year-old man with hepatitis B virus with steatosis grade 0; 2) 62-year-old man with NASH and hepatitis B virus with steatosis grade S1; 3) 38-year-old man with NASH with steatosis ...

Substantial advances have been achieved in the development of humanized mouse models, which have proven highly valuable in evaluating cancer immunotherapies and elucidating the mechanisms of infectious diseases. There is now a growing shift in research toward larger animal models—such as pigs—that offer greater physiological similarity to humans ...

Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis
Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis. Abstract Background and Aims Nucleotide‐binding oligomerization domain‐like receptor‐family pyrin domain‐containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation has been shown to result in liver fibrosis.

The graphical abstract shows how molecular biology research has shifted from using traditional animal models toward using methods that are more relevant to humans. It points out the main problems, differences between species, difficulty in reproducing results, moral issues, and lack of infrastructure that make translational accuracy harder to achieve ...

NRPT 1X reduces ALT and ceramide 14:0 in 65% of subjects as compared to only 28% in the placebo group. Abstract Background and Aims The prevalence of NAFLD is increasing globally and on a path to becoming the most frequent cause of chronic liver disease. Strategies for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD are urgently needed.
