| |  Six out of ten people with type 2 diabetes had fatty liver in a new study from Linköping University. Of these, only a small percentage had developed more severe liver disease. | |
|
| |  The prestigious journal Hepatology Communications reports on the discovery by the Cancer and Translational Medicine research group of the University of the Basque Country (EHU). | |
|
| |  Hepatitis B virus-induced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a major global health burden, and new therapeutic and diagnostic approaches are urgently needed. | |
|
| |  MODY 5 is a rare genetic diabetes subtype caused by HNF1B mutations or deletions, often presenting with early-onset diabetes and kidney, liver, or pancreatic abnormalities. Accurate genetic diagnosis is crucial, as MODY 5 frequently lacks family history and requires tailored, multidisciplinary care to prevent mismanagement and missed complications. | |
|
| |  Pancreatic cancer is a severe illness and major challenge in cancer medicine since it is difficult to diagnose, while potential therapies are scarce. | |
|
| | A protein called PCSK9 determines how pancreatic cancer cells metastasize to different parts of the body. | |
|
| |  The liver has a unique structure, especially at the level of individual cells. Hepatocytes, the main liver cells, release bile into tiny channels called bile canaliculi, which drain into the bile duct in the liver periportal region. | |
|
| |  A recent study published in Engineering has shed light on the relationship between gut microbiota, isoflavones, and geniposide hepatotoxicity. | |
|
| |  Liver transplant is a lifesaving surgery, but a significant number of patients experience organ rejection or other complications. | |

|
| |  Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest forms of cancer, killing 87% of patients within five years. Previous studies have shown that obesity can increase pancreatic cancer risk by around 50%. | |
|
| |  Liver fibrosis, a pathological condition in which the liver becomes stiff and scarred, commonly develops in the progression of chronic liver diseases such as chronic hepatitis and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). | |
|
| |  A new review published in Genes & Diseases explores the intricate epigenetic regulatory network of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), shedding light on the profound impact of DNA methylation, histone modifications, RNA methylation, and microRNAs on lncRNA transcription. | |
|
| |  Announcing a new article publication for BIO Integration journal. Liver fibrosis is caused by excessive extracellular matrix accumulation, which in turn is driven by activation of hepatic stellate cells. | |
|
| |  A novel molecular imaging agent targeting glypican-3 (GPC3) has demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity in detecting hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), including tumors smaller than one centimeter, according to results from a pilot clinical study. | |
