|
| Adults with positive HBsAg for at least 6 months were recruited from 12 medical centers. Participants underwent dual-elasto evaluations. [Hepatology] |
|
|
|
| To define the metabolic phenotype in normal proliferating hepatocytes, scientists induced cell proliferation in the liver by three distinct stimuli: liver regeneration by partial hepatectomy and hepatic hyperplasia induced by two direct mitogens, lead nitrate or triiodothyronine. [Hepatology] |
|
|
|
| Researchers reported that F-box protein (FBXO) 28 was a critical negative regulator of migration, invasion, and metastasis in human HCC in vitro and in vivo. [Oncogene] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated the effects of acute alcohol intoxication on inflammation-related markers in hepatic and systemic venous plasma in people with alcohol-related liver disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and healthy controls. [Liver International] |
|
|
|
| The authors investigated the roles of exosomal miRNAs from Sal-treated hepatocytes in hepatic stellate cell activation as well as liver fibrosis. [Cell Death Discovery] |
|
|
|
| Scientists proposed a hepatocyte culture model for the rapid evaluation of drug biliary excretion using permeation assays. [Communications Biology] |
|
|
|
| Researchers tested the liability for cytochrome P450 (CYP) induction of a diverse set of yes-associated protein (YAP)/TEA domain transcription factor (TEAD) inhibitors with different modes of action and TEAD isoform selectivity profiles in monolayers and 3D spheroids of primary human hepatocytes. [Biochemical Pharmacology] |
|
|
|
| To address the functional role of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) in the adult liver, the authors used an acute hepatocyte-specific GR knockout model to study temporal hepatic lipid metabolism governed by GR at several pre- and postprandial circadian timepoints. [Endocrinology] |
|
|
|
| Through extensive statistical analyses, using liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC) patient databases, investigators observed that coiled-coil domain-containing protein 115 (CCDC115) expression significantly increased in tumor tissues of LIHC patients. [Heliyon] |
|
|
|
|
|
| Scientists systematically collected relevant literature in the past five years on the intervention of natural polysaccharides in alcoholic liver disease and reviewed the pharmacological activities and potential mechanisms of action. [International Journal of Biological Macromolecules] |

|
| Dr. Wanqing Liu received a $3 million, five-year award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences of the National Institutes of Health. [Wayne State University] |

|
|
| A recent $9.57 million grant awarded to researchers with the UC San Diego NAFLD Research Center at University of California San Diego School of Medicine will support a clinical trial to study a new treatment option for patients with the disease. [UC San Diego] |
