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...
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.
A growing appreciation of the importance of cellular metabolism and revelations concerning the extent of cell-cell heterogeneity demand metabolic characterization of individual cells. We present SpaceM, an open-source method for in situ single-cell metabolomics that detects >100 metabolites fr...
Alhagi-honey (AH) is a well-established traditional ethnic medicine with advantageous effects against diarrhea and headaches. We aim to explore the preventive effect of AH on liver damage induced by heat stress (HS) and its underlying mechanism. HS models were established by thermostat, and mice ...
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 ...
BACKGROUND: Single ventricle congenital heart disease (SVCHD) is a severe form of cardiac malformation in which there is only one functional ventricle. The Fontan operation is the current standard of care for SVCHD. Almost all patients who have undergone the Fontan operation develop liver fibrosi...
