Translational strategies to characterize and monitor extracellular vesicles such as exosome (EX) shedding and the clinical impact of this data within hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. In this study, EX shedding was assessed in early-sta...

Despite improvements in short-term and long-term outcomes of liver transplant patients, the discrepancy between the number of available livers and transplant candidates continues to increase. The use of expanded criteria donors is one strategy that c...

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a complex liver disorder that can result in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, cirrhosis, and liver cancer, is the accumulation of fat in the liver seen in people due to metabolic dysfunction. The pathophysiolog...

Laparoscopic posterosuperior liver segment resection is considered technically challenging. This is a retrospective single-center single-surgeon study. The aim of the present study is to investigate the short-term outcomes in a single institution bet...

Hepatic sinusoids are lined with thin endothelial cells with transcellular pores, termed fenestrations. These fenestrations are open channels that connect the sinusoidal lumen to the underlying Space of Disse (SoD) and the hepatocytes of the liver pa...

This paper provides a comprehensive review of the current understanding of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its progression to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), focusing on key factors influencing its pathogenesis and emerging therap...

Herbal and dietary supplements represent a multi-billion-dollar industry reportedly used by over half of American adults. However, these products are not regulated by the Federal Drug Agency and contain a wide range of contaminants, leading to over 5...

Metabolic dysfunction associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) has been recently recognized as a new global chronic liver disease entity with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) associated with overweight/obesity or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM...

Acetaminophen (APAP) is a widely used drug, but overdose can cause severe acute liver injury. The first reports of APAP hepatotoxicity in humans were published in 1966, shortly after the development of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate ami...

Aim: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease. Pemafibrate, a selective peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor α modulator (SPPARMα), has been reported to ameliorate liver function am...
