Transcriptomic analysis across liver diseases reveals disease-modulating activation of constitutive androstane receptor in cholestasis

Kristina Schoonjans, Jian Liu, Bhoomika Mathur

Background & Aims: Liver diseases are caused by many factors, such as genetics, nutrition, and viruses. Therefore, it is important to delineate transcriptomic changes that occur in various liver diseases. Methods: We performed high-throughput sequencing of ...

TGR5/Cathepsin E signaling regulates macrophage innate immune activation in liver ischemia and reperfusion injury

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans, Qi Wang

The role and underlying mechanism of plasma membrane-bound G protein-coupled bile acid receptor (TGR5) in regulating macrophage innate immune activation during liver ischemia and reperfusion (IR) injury remains largely unclear. Here, we demonstrated that T ...

STAT3 promotes melanoma metastasis by CEBP-induced repression of the MITF pathway

Friedrich Beermann

Metastatic melanoma is hallmarked by its ability of phenotype switching to more slowly proliferating, but highly invasive cells. Here, we tested the impact of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) on melanoma progression in association ...

A new class of protein biomarkers based on subcellular distribution: application to a mouse liver cancer model

Kristina Schoonjans, Vera Monica Lemos Da Silva, Evan Graehl Williams, Pan Xu, Amir Banaei Esfahani, Chen Li, Ruedi Aebersold

To-date, most proteomic studies aimed at discovering tissue-based cancer biomarkers have compared the quantity of selected proteins between case and control groups. However, proteins generally function in association with other proteins to form modules loc ...

Intraoperative image-guided navigation system: development and applicability in 65 patients undergoing liver surgery

Delphine Ribes Lemay, Matthias Peterhans

Image-guided systems have recently been introduced for their application in liver surgery. We aimed to identify and propose suitable indications for image-guided navigation systems in the domain of open oncologic liver surgery and, more specifically, in th ...

A Cross-Species Analysis in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors Reveals Molecular Subtypes with Distinctive Clinical, Metastatic, Developmental, and Metabolic Characteristics

Douglas Hanahan, Anguraj Sadanandam, Stephan Wullschleger, Ismaël Wafy

Seeking to assess the representative and instructive value of an engineered mouse model of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNET) for its cognate human cancer, we profiled and compared mRNA and miRNA transcriptomes of tumors from both. Mouse PanNET tumo ...

The Receptor TGR5 Protects the Liver From Bile Acid Overload During Liver Regeneration in Mice

Kristina Schoonjans

Many regulatory pathways are involved in liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy (PH) to initiate growth, protect liver cells, and sustain functions of the remnant liver. Bile acids (BAs), whose levels rise in the blood early after PH, stimulate both ...

Towards higher precision in instrument guided liver surgery: automatic registration of 3D ultrasound with pre-operative MeVis-CT

Delphine Ribes Lemay, Matthias Peterhans

Purpose Liver cancer is the 5 most common cancer and shows poor prognosis. Surgical removal of liver tumours, the only existing curative treatment, can merely be used in 10-20% of the case. Increasing surgical precision is a key-challenge to give more pati ...

A navigation system for open liver surgery: design, workflow and first clinical applications

Charles Baur, Benoît Dagon, Matthias Peterhans

Background The surgical treatment of liver tumours relies on precise localization of the lesions and detailed knowledge of the patient-speciﬁc vascular and biliary anatomy. Detailed three-dimensional (3D) anatomical information facilitates complete tumour ...

Ablation of the Tumor Suppressor Histidine Triad Nucleotide Binding Protein 1 is Protective Against Hepatic Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury

Gisèle Ferrand

The identification of cellular pathways capable of limiting ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury remains a frontier in medicine, and its clinical relevance is urgent. Histidine triad nucleotide binding protein 1 (HINT1) is a tumor suppressor that influences a ...
