Emerging biomolecules for practical theranostics of liver hepatocellular carcinoma
Ann Hepatol. 2023 Jul 13:101137. doi: 10.1016/j.aohep.2023.101137. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMost cases of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are able to be diagnosed through regular surveillance in an identifiable patient population with chronic hepatitis B or cirrhosis. Nevertheless, 50% of global cases might present incidentally owing to symptomatic advanced-stage HCC after worsening of liver dysfunction. A systematic search based on PUBMED was performed to identify relevant outcomes, covering newer surveillance modalities including secretory proteins, DNA methylation, miRNAs, and genome sequencing analysis which propos...

Metformin ameliorates liver fibrosis induced by congestive hepatopathy via the mTOR/HIF-1 α signaling pathway
CONCLUSIONS: Metformin inhibits CH-induced liver fibrosis. Functionally, this beneficial effect may be the result of inhibition of HSC activation and of the mTOR/HIF-1α signaling pathway.PMID:37451514 | DOI:10.1016/j.aohep.2023.101135 (Source: Annals of Hepatology)

Develop and validate a novel online AIHI-nomogram to predict severe liver inflammation in patients with autoimmune hepatitis
CONCLUSIONS: This novel AIHI-nomogram provided an excellent prediction of severe liver inflammation in AIH patients and could be used for the better management of AIH.PMID:37442347 | DOI:10.1016/j.aohep.2023.101134 (Source: Annals of Hepatology)

A multi-society Delphi consensus statement on new fatty liver disease nomenclature
CONCLUSIONS: The new nomenclature and diagnostic criteria are widely supported, non-stigmatising and can improve awareness and patient identification.PMID:37364816 | DOI:10.1016/j.aohep.2023.101133 (Source: Annals of Hepatology)
