In a new study published in the Journal of Hepatology, researchers from the San Raffaele Telethon Institute for Gene Therapy (SR-Tiget) show that only 15–20% of hepatocytes in newborn mice - dubbed clonogenic hepatocytes - are responsible for generating over 90% of the adult liver mass.
 
 Study identifies C1orf122 as prognostic marker in liver cancer
 
Study identifies C1orf122 as prognostic marker in liver cancerPrimary liver cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths, of which hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for approximately 90% of all liver cancer cases.
 
 
 New advances offer hope in the fight against KRAS-driven pancreatic cancer
 
New advances offer hope in the fight against KRAS-driven pancreatic cancerAccounting for nearly 90% of all pancreatic cancers, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a five-year survival rate of just 13%. Late-stage diagnosis, limited surgical options, and toxic chemotherapy regimens contribute to its poor outcomes.

 Novel vascularized cancer-on-a-chip model reflects the microenvironment of liver tumors
 
Novel vascularized cancer-on-a-chip model reflects the microenvironment of liver tumorsDr. Vadim Jucaud's lab at the Terasaki Institute has developed a human vascularized liver cancer-on-a-chip model to evaluate vessel remodeling and cell death in response to embolic agents.
 
 
 Two research papers shed light on how gut-brain interactions shape eating behaviors
 
Two new papers from Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology and Gastroenterology shed light on how gut-brain interactions, influenced by both biology and life circumstances, shape eating behaviors.
 
 
 Genetic mutation in some East Asians linked to aldehyde storm and increased liver disease risk
 
Researchers have identified the mechanism by which a common genetic mutation increases liver disease risk. Their findings suggest that healthy choices, such as increasing antioxidants and limiting exposure to smoke, may reduce the risk of this disease.
