Hepatocellular carcinoma continues to pose a diagnostic challenge, particularly in the setting of underlying pathomorphological changes in the liver due to cirrhosis, steatosis, or steatohepatitis.

In their effort to answer a decades-old biological question about how the hepatitis B virus (HBV) is able to establish infection of liver cells, researchers have identified a vulnerability that opens ...

Liver doctors and researchers share what it really means to detox from alcohol, and the profound benefits of this decision on ...

The following is a summary of “Individual mHLA-DR trajectories in the ICU as predictors of early infections following liver ...

First identified by Stevens and Johnson in 1922, SJS and TEN are now recognized as disorders with a continuum of severity, ...

zju.edu.cn Objective We aimed to elucidate the mutual regulation mechanism of ubiquitin-specific protease 22 (USP22) and hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF1α), and the mechanism they promote the ...

“These viruses can cause cell death, and chronic infections can lead to scarring, or fibrosis,” says Sudha Kodali, MD, a hepatologist in Sugar Land, Texas, and a volunteer for the American ...

Cirrhosis is a condition in which scar tissue gradually replaces your healthy liver cells. It usually happens over a long period, often due to hepatitis, alcohol use disorder, or metabolic ...

What Is an Inflamed Liver? Inflammation is the body's way to heal an injury or damaged cells. In the liver, this injury can be caused by many things, including an infection, toxins, or the buildup ...

Objective Follistatin-like protein 1 (FSTL1) is widely recognised as a secreted glycoprotein, but its role in modulating macrophage-related inflammation during liver fibrosis has not been documented.

However, observations carried out with a phase-contrast microscope on isolated living liver cells from animals kept in hypoxia indicate that vacuoles are not visible in non-fixed, unstained cells.
