Toxoplasma gondii poses a great threat to human health, with no approved vaccine available for the treatment of T. gondii infection. T. gondii infections are not limited to the brain, and may also affect other organs especially the liver. Identification of host liver molecules or pathways involved i...

BACKGROUND: Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE) is caused by the growth of Echinococcus multilocularis larvae in the liver. It is a chronic and potentially lethal parasitic disease. Early stage diagnosis for this disease is currently not available due to its long asymptomatic ...

Alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) has limited therapeutic options due to its complex pathogenesis. This study demonstrates the ALD-protective effects of extracellular nanoparticles derived from Bifidobacterium bifidum (BNPs), focusing on the novel concept of gut microbiota-derived nanoparticles...

Acute phase proteins (APPs) are an evolutionarily conserved family of proteins produced mainly in the liver in response to infection and inflammation. Despite vast pro- and anti-inflammatory properties ascribed to individual APPs, their collective function during infections remains poorly defined. U...

Investigations of human parasitic diseases depend on the availability of appropriate in vivo animal models and ex vivo experimental systems, and are particularly difficult for pathogens whose exclusive natural hosts are humans, as for Entamoeba histolytica, the protozoan parasite responsible for amo...

Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is associated with increased relative liver weight at birth, hepatic function decline and a higher risk for chronic liver and cardiovascular diseases in adults. Precise mechanisms of early developmental plasticity to intervene in poor fetal programming and a...

Okara, a byproduct of soybean processing, possesses valuable nutritional and physiological properties. Steam explosion, an efficient physical modification technique, can increase the soluble dietary fiber (SDF) content in okara and potentially amplify its health benefits, such as anti-obesity eff...

Liver fibrosis is a reversible wound-healing response to liver injury and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are central cellular players that mediate hepatic fibrogenesis. However, the molecular mechanisms that govern this process remain unclear. Here, we reveal a novel cistromic circuit in HSCs compris...

Recent work using mouse models has revealed that mTORC2, which unlike mTORC1 is not acutely sensitive to rapamycin, plays a key role in the regulation of organismal physiology. The substrates and pathways regulated by mTORC2 are at present relatively unknown Using a mouse model with a targeted delet...

If the function of the nuclear receptor PPARa is well-known during a prolongated fasting, its hepatic biological function during feeding and refeeding conditions still needs to be investigated. Moreover, in vivo data collected so far on PPARa function during fasting were obtained using the total Ppa...
