Published in 2017 at "Hepatology"

DOI: 10.1002/hep.28831

Abstract: Biliary‐committed progenitor cells (small mouse cholangiocytes; SMCCs) from small bile ducts are more resistant to hepatobiliary injury than large mouse cholangiocytes (LGCCs) from large bile ducts. The definitive endoderm marker, forkhead box A2 (FoxA2), is… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Hepatology"

DOI: 10.1002/hep.28896

Abstract: Acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF) in cirrhosis is an increasingly recognized syndrome characterized by acute decompensation, organ failure(s) and high short‐term mortality. Recent findings suggest that an overexuberant systemic inflammation plays a primary role in ACLF… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Hepatology"

DOI: 10.1002/hep.28897

Abstract: Albumin is a potent scavenger of reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, modifications in albumin structure may reduce its antioxidant properties and modulate its immune‐regulatory functions. We examined alterations in circulating albumin in severe alcoholic hepatitis… read more here.
