Project description:The progression from steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients is one of the major causes of liver-related death worldwide and have limited effective therapies. We comparing the circular RNomics of liver fibroblasts isolated from patients with NAFLD-caused cirrhosis and the ones without NAFLD.
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE30447: Foxa1 Reduces Lipid Accumulation in Human Hepatocytes and Is Down-regulated in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver (HepG2 data) GSE30450: Foxa1 Reduces Lipid Accumulation in Human Hepatocytes and Is Down-regulated in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver (hepatocytes data) Refer to individual Series
Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a predominant form of chronic liver disease, affecting nearly 25 % of the global population. The progression from steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in NAFLD patients is one of the major causes of liver-related death worldwide. We assessed the miRNA expression profiles of the exosomes derived from the peripheral blood of NASH patients or healthy controls.
Project description:Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disease worldwide. Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), the progressive form of NAFLD, and advanced fibrosis are associated with poor outcomes but their molecular pathogenesis is not fully elucidated. Global RNA sequencing of snap frozen liver tissue from 98 patients with biopsy-proven NAFLD was performed. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering well-distinguished NASH from NAFL, and NASH patients exhibited molecular abnormalities reflecting their pathological features. Transcriptomic analysis identified multiple secreted proteins upregulated in NASH and/or advanced fibrosis
Project description:To investigate the function of miRNAs in liver, we obtained liver tissues from nonsteatotic individuals and fatty livers from patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Patients due to excessive alcohol consumption, autoimmune liver disease, viral hepatitis and diabetes were excluded. Nonsteatotic livers were collected from the normal region of the livers from donors who received liver resection due to liver hemangioma, and were defined as those with NASH activity scores of 0 We then performed miRNA sequencing using livers from two NAFLD patients and two nonsteatotic individuals.
Project description:Purpose: We investigated the tetrachloroethylene associated changes in kidney transcriptomes among healthy mice, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease mice, and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis mice.
