Waiting list registration and liver transplantation rates among patients with autoimmune liver disease: An 11-year trend analysis
(Oat, 2021-04)
Objectives: We aimed to analyze waiting list and liver transplantation trends for autoimmune liver disease in Argentina.Methods: We designed a population-based analysis of waitlisted or liver transplanted patients for ...
Three liver transplants after a single cadaveric procurement: Split liver transplantation plus domino liver transplantation, an infrequent but valid alternative for maximizing transplant sharing and applicability - Report of the first Latin American case
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2014-09)
The development of liver surgery and the need toovercome the shortage of cadaveric grafts havestimulated the creativity of surgeons in describingdifferent options for using segmental liver grafts.Reduced size liver ...
A low maternal protein diet during pregnancy and lactation induce liver offspring damage, in the rat
(Austin Publishing Group, 2015-01)
Pregnancy and fetal development are periods of rapid growth and cell differentiation when mother and offspring are vulnerable to changes. Adverse events during development can be linked to an increased risk for developing ...
Liver glucokinase: An overview on the regulatorymechanisms of its activity
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2011-01)
Blood glucose is the primary cellular substrate and in vivo must be tightly maintained. The liver plays a key role in glucose homeostasis increasing or decreasing glucose output and uptake during fasting and feeding. ...
NMR-based identification of metabolites in polar and non-polar extracts of avian liver
(MDPI, 2017-12)
Metabolites present in liver provide important clues regarding the physiological state of an organism. The aim of this work was to evaluate a protocol for high-throughput NMR-based analysis of polar and non-polar metabolites ...
The natural history of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease: mortality rates and liver enzymes
(AME Publishing Company, 2017-03-02)
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has emerged as an important health issue of the modern world, due to the dramatic increase in its prevalence, which has doubled and in some regions tripled in the past decade. ...

(Cell Press, 2020-06)
The availability of an autologous transplantable auxiliary liver would dramatically affect the treatment of liver disease. Assembly and function in vivo of a bioengineered human liver derived from induced pluripotent stem ...
Serum aminotransferases in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease are a signature of liver metabolic perturbations at the amino acid and Krebs cycle level
(American Society for Nutrition, 2016-01)
Background: Extensive epidemiologic studies have shown that cardiovascular disease and the metabolic syndrome (MetS) are associated with serum concentrations of liver enzymes; however, fundamental characteristics of this ...
Cardiovascular disease is associated with high-fat-diet-induced liver damage and up-regulation of the hepatic expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α in a rat model
(Portland Press, 2013-01)
CVD (cardiovascular disease) is associated with abnormal liver enzymes, and NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease) is independently associated with cardiovascular risk. To gain insights into the molecular events underlying ...
Metalloproteinases in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and their behavior in liver fibrosis
(De Gruyter, 2018-12)
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a clinical entity of high prevalence in the world characterized by fatty infiltration of liver tissue in the absence of alcohol consumption. The natural history of the disease ...
