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...

Non-alcoholic fatty liver is the most common liver disease worldwide. Here, we show that the mitochondrial protein mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) protects against liver disease. Reduced Mfn2 expression was detected in liver biopsies from patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Moreover, reduced Mfn2...

The unfolded protein response (UPR), induced by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, regulates the expression of factors that restore protein folding homeostasis. However, in the liver and kidney, ER stress also leads to lipid accumulation, accompanied at least in the liver by transcriptional suppress...

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...

Liver cirrhosis is one of the leading causes of decreased life expectancy worldwide. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the development of liver cirrhosis remain unclear. In this study, we performed a comprehensive analysis using transcriptome and metabolome sequencing to explore the genes...

The sustainable growth of fish aquaculture will require the procurement of non-marine feed sources. Glycerol is a potential feed supplement whose metabolism may spare the catabolism of dietary amino acids, thereby extending the use of the feed protein to other physiological functions such as growth....

In this study, lipid alterations in Beagle dog’s liver caused by Toxocara canis infection were investigated by using liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry at 12 hours post infection (hpi), 24 hpi and 36 days post infection (dpi). A total of 6 categories and 42 subclasses of...

Excessive lipid droplet accumulation in hepatocytes drives the progression of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), often leading to inflammation and fibrosis. As obesity and metabolic syndrome rise, MASLD has become a global concern, spurring research into effective trea...

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) encompasses a spectrum of inherited disorders that lead to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). There is no cure for PKD and current treatment options are limited to renal replacement therapy and transplantation. A better understanding of the pathobiology of PKD is needed ...

Transmembrane-6 superfamily member 2 (TM6SF2) regulates hepatic fat metabolism and is closely associated with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). MASH involves genetic predisposition and gut microbiota alteration, yet the role of host-microbes interaction in disease developme...
