Abstract Background & Aims: Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) pathogenesis involves gut microbiota dysbiosis, but specific pathobionts and mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigated the role of patient-derived enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (ETBF) in ALD progression and its underlyi...

Liver injury causes “transdifferentiation” of quiescent hepatic stellate cells (Q-HSCs) into wound repairing myofibroblasts (MF-HSCs), whose uncontrolled activation leads ultimately to liver fibrosis. Although this process is triggered by deep metabolic and transcriptional reprogramming, functional ...

The HGF/c-Met system is an essential inducer of hepatocyte growth and proliferation. Although a fundamental role for the HGF receptor c-Met has been demonstrated in acute liver regeneration its cell specific role in hepatocytes during chronic liver injury and fibrosis progression has not been determ...

Persistent liver injury triggers a fibrogenic program that causes pathologic remodelling of the hepatic microenvironment (i.e., liver fibrosis) and portal hypertension. The dynamics of gene regulation during liver disease progression and regression remain understudied. Here, we generated hepatic tra...

Hepatic fibrosis, the wound-healing response to repeated liver injury, ultimately leads to cirrhosis. There is an urgent need to develop effective antifibrotic therapies. Ghrelin (encoded by Ghrl) is an orexigenic hormone that has pleiotrophic functions including protection against cell death1. Here...

Background: HGF/c-Met signaling plays a pivotal role in hepatocyte survival and tissue remodeling during liver regeneration. Treatment with HGF has been shown to accelerate resolution of fibrotic liver lesions in experimental animal models. To formally address the importance of c-Met signaling in he...

Unveiling the regulatory pathways maintaining hepatic stellate cells (HSC) in a quiescent (q) phenotype is essential to develop new therapeutic strategies to treat fibrogenic diseases. To uncover the miRNA-mRNAs regulatory interactions in qHSCs, HSCs were FACS-sorted from healthy livers and activate...
