Anti-miR-873-5p improves alcohol-related liver disease by enhancing hepatic deacetylation via SIRT1
Kristina Schoonjans, Petar Petrov
Background & Aims: Current therapies for the treatment of alcohol-related liver disease (ALD) have proven largely ineffective. Patients relapse and the disease progresses even after liver transplantation. Altered epigenetic mechanisms are characteristic of ...
Amsterdam2024Characterization of Cyclo His-Pro for the prevention and treatment of liver disease and muscular dystrophy
The natural compound Cyclo Histidine-Proline (CHP) was initially discovered in the brain, but thereafter evaluated in the context of diabetes because of its hypoglycemic action. The pharmacokinetics and the toxicological profile of CHP showed it can be dos ...
EPFL2023High field brain proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy and volumetry in children with chronic, compensated liver disease-A pilot study
Lijing Xin, Cristina Ramona Cudalbu, Bénédicte Marie Maréchal, Sarah Lachat
Background: There is increasing evidence that children or young adults having acquired liver disease in childhood display neurocognitive impairment which may become more apparent as they grow older. The molecular, cellular and morphological underpinnings o ...
ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE2023New insights into rodent brain microstructure and metabolism in hepatic encephalopathy
Type C hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a severe neuropsychiatric complication of chronic liver disease, for which the prognosis is poor in the absence of liver transplantation. Cirrhosis in type C HE leads to a toxic accumulation of ammonia in the blood, wh ...
EPFL2023Structural basis of bile salt extrusion and small-molecule inhibition in human BSEP
Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Dongchun Ni
BSEP (ABCB11) is an ATP-binding cassette transporter that is expressed in hepatocytes and extrudes bile salts into the canaliculi of the liver. BSEP dysfunction, caused by mutations or induced by drugs, is frequently associated with severe cholestatic live ...
Berlin2023Dissecting the role of biliary epithelial cells during non-alcoholic fatty liver disease progression
The liver is the largest solid organ and the only one capable of using regenerative mechanisms to recover its mass fully. Although liver regeneration from acute injuries has been effective and extensively studied, chronic liver damage has adverse effects o ...
EPFL2022Dissecting the role of the asparagine synthesis in acute liver injury
Amino acids are some of the main building stones of life used in a variety of biological processes, such as protein synthesis, energy metabolism or even as precursors for hormone synthesis. How-ever, some of them also participate and coordinate certain cel ...
EPFL2022Advanced metabolite mapping at ultra-high field using 1H-MRS, 1H-MRSI and macromolecules: applications in a rat model of type C hepatic encephalopathy
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) is the only technique capable of measuring a large number of metabolites simultaneously in vivo. Ultra-high magnetic fields (UHF) combined with ultra-short echo time (TE) sequences allow the detection of high-quality 1 ...
EPFL2022Dissecting the role of the mitochondrial carrier SLC25A47
Transporters of the SLC25 mitochondrial carrier superfamily bridge cytoplasmic and mitochondrial metabolism by channeling metabolites across mitochondrial membranes and are pivotal for metabolic homeostasis. Despite their physiological relevance as gatekee ...
EPFL2022Spatial proteogenomics reveals distinct and evolutionarily conserved hepatic macrophage niches
Bart Deplancke, Wouter Saelens
The liver is the largest solid organ in the body, yet it remains incompletely characterized. Here we present a spatial proteogenomic atlas of the healthy and obese human and murine liver combining single-cell CITEseq, single-nuclei sequencing, spatial tran ...
