Acetaminophen (APAP) is a widely used pain reliever that can cause liver injury or liver failure in response to an overdose. Understanding the mechanisms of APAP-induced cell death is critical for identifying new therapeutic targets. In this respect...
Despite the high medical and socioeconomic burden of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), treatments that could effectively reduce histological liver damage in this condition are lacking. As providing only qualitative data is a major limitation...
Sesquiterpenoid tagitinin C, present in Tithonia diversifolia leaves, has been known to have anti-hepatoma properties. Therefore, we investigated the anti-metastatic potential of tagitinin C in xenograft models of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We i...
The Spheroid Reservoir Bioartificial Liver (SRBAL) is an innovative treatment option for acute liver failure (ALF). This extracorporeal support device, which provides detoxification and other liver functions using high-density culture of porcine hepa...
Chronic liver diseases (CLDs) that lead to hepatic fibrosis, cirrhosis, and/or hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have become a major cause of illness and death worldwide. The main causative factors for CLDs are chronic viral infections, excessive alcoho...
FYB2 (also known as C1orf168 or ARAP) is an adaptor protein involved in T-cell receptor (TCR)-mediated T-cell activation and adhesion. However, the correlation of FYB2 with prognosis and cancer needs further investigation. In this study, we analyzed...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third major cause of cancer-related death worldwide and responds positively to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Dasatinib (Das) is an Src/Abl family kinase and has been successfully utilized in the treatment of...
(1) Background: The treatment goal of ketogenic glycogen storage diseases (GSDs) is appropriate control of hypoglycemia and other disturbances such as dyslipidemia. Monitoring and treatment of ketosis are known to improve outcomes. We used breath ana...
Patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have a very limited survival rate even after the recent inclusion of kinase inhibitors or immune checkpoint inhibitors in the therapeutic armamentarium. A significant problem with the current prop...
Oxygen is vital for life as it is required for many different enzymatic reactions involved in intermediate metabolism and xenobiotic biotransformation. Moreover, oxygen consumption in the electron transport chain of mitochondria is used to drive the...
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a serious clinicopathological condition that is recognized as the most frequent chronic liver disease, affecting 14–30% of the world’s population. The prevalence of NAFLD has rapidly grown and...
Alagille syndrome (ALGS) is a genetic-driven condition of chronic cholestasis, involving the intrahepatic bile ducts, heart, vessels, kidneys, skeletal tissues, eyes, and nervous system. Pathological mechanisms are still not defined. JAG1 and NOTCH2...
One carbon metabolism (1CM) can be defined as the transfer of a carbon unit from one metabolite to another and its replenishment by different sources of labile methyl-group nutrients: primarily choline, methionine, betaine, and serine. This flow of c...
