In pre-disposed individuals, a reprogramming of the hepatic lipid metabolism may support liver cancer initiation. We conducted a high-resolution mass spectrometry based untargeted lipidomics analysis of pre-diagnostic serum samples from a nested case-control study (219 liver cancer cases and 219 ...
Diminished hepatocyte regeneration is a key feature of acute and chronic liver diseases and after extended liver resections, resulting in the inability to maintain or restore a sufficient functional liver mass. Therapies to restore hepatocyte regeneration are lacking, making liver transplantation...
International differences in the incidence of many cancer types indicate the existence of carcinogen exposures that have not been identified by conventional epidemiology yet potentially make a substantial contribution to cancer burden1. This pertains to clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), fo...
Several studies indicated anti-cancer effects of metformin in liver cancer. This was attributed to the activation of LKB-AMPK axis, which is associated with anti-hyperglycaemic effect and cytotoxicity. However, glucose- and central carbon-independent effects of metformin ...
Kupffer cells from both Sed and PEx mice were harvested for Metabolomics. 3 weeks after tumor injection, both mice bearing MC38 tumors were sacrificed. The livers were harvested and processed into single-cell suspensions, and KCs were isolated.
