| Cells expressing human sodium-taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide were inoculated with hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis delta virus. HBV pre-genomic RNA, covalently closed circular DNA and different relaxed circular DNA intermediates were produced in vitro. [Hepatology] |

|
| To identify liver-regulated pathways linking intra-hepatic and plasma triglyceride metabolism, researchers performed transcriptomic analysis of liver biopsies from two independent cohorts of obese patients. [Hepatology] |
|
|
|
| Scientists reported that macroH2A1.2 and macroH2A2 modulated the transcriptional ground state of cancer cells and how they responded to inflammatory cytokines. [Cell Reports] |
|
|
|
| Silencing ANKFN1 expression suppressed HCC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and metastasis in vitro and subcutaneous tumorigenesis in vivo. [Oncogene] |
|
|
|
| The authors demonstrated that FoxO3 deletion accelerated liver regeneration primarily by limiting polyploidization and promoting the proliferation of hepatocytes during liver regeneration. [NPJ Regenerative Medicine] |
|
|
|
| Scientists used a proteomics approach to circumvent the mechanism for lipotoxicity using hepatocellular carcinoma cells as a model. [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| Researchers reported that hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) underwent senescence within two days after 2/3 partial hepatectomy in young mice, and elimination of these senescent cells by the senolytic drug ABT263 or using a genetic mouse model impaired liver regeneration. [JCI Insight] |
|
|
|
| The manifestations of liver injury triggered by P. multiflorum and the associated metabolic enzymes/transporters in the metabolic pathways of bilirubin and bile acid were investigated to elucidate the mechanism and target of the hepatotoxicity of P. multiflorum and related components. [Journal of Ethnopharmacology] |
|
|
|
| The authors genotyped 42 non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients for three IFNL4 single-nucleotide variants in order to investigate the genetic relationship between IFNL4 and fibrosis in NAFLD patients. [Genes & Immunity] |

|
|
| Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a prognostically relevant neuropsychiatric syndrome that occurs in the course of acute or chronic liver disease. Severity classification and diagnostic approaches regarding mild forms of HE are still a matter of debate. [Nature Reviews Disease Primers] |
|
|
|
|
| Echosens and Novo Nordisk A/S announced a partnership to advance early diagnosis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and increase awareness of the disease among patients, healthcare providers, and other stakeholders. [Echosens] |
