Targeting UBC9-Mediated Protein Hyper-SUMOylation in Cystic Cholangiocytes Halts Polycystic Liver Disease in Experimental Models
(Elsevier, 2021-02)
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Polycystic liver diseases (PLDs) are genetic disorders characterized by progressive development of multiple fluid-filled biliary cysts. Most PLD-causative genes participate in protein biogenesis and/or ...
Novel equation to determine the hepatic triglyceride concentration in humans by MRI: diagnosis and monitoring of NAFLD in obese patients before and after bariatric surgery
(Biomed Central, 2014-08-26)
Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is caused by abnormal accumulation of lipids within liver cells. Its prevalence is increasing in developed countries in association with obesity, and it represents a ...
Targeting NAE1-mediated protein hyper-NEDDylation halts cholangiocarcinogenesis and impacts on tumor-stroma crosstalk in experimental models.
(Elsevier, 2022-07)
[EN] BACKGROUND & AIMS: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) comprises a heterogeneous group of malignant tumors associated with dismal prognosis. Alterations in post-translational modifications (PTMs), including NEDDylation, result ...
Natural history of liver disease in a large international cohort of children with Alagille syndrome: Results from the GALA study
(Wiley, 2023-02)
Background and Aims:
Alagille syndrome (ALGS) is a multisystem disorder, characterized by cholestasis. Existing outcome data are largely derived from tertiary centers, and real‐world data are lacking. This study aimed ...
Beneficial effect of ursodeoxycholic acid in patients with acyl-CoA oxidase 2 (ACOX2) deficiency-associated hypertransaminasemia
(Wiley, 2022-11)
Background and Aims: A variant (p.Arg225Trp) of peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase 2 (ACOX2), involved in bile acid (BA) side-chain shortening, has been associated with unexplained persistent hypertransaminasemia and ...
A Novel Serum Metabolomic Profile for the Differential Diagnosis of Distal Cholangiocarcinoma and Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
(MDPI, 2020-05-31)
The diagnosis of adenocarcinomas located in the pancreas head, i.e., distal cholangiocarcinoma (dCCA) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), constitutes a clinical challenge because they share many symptoms, are not ...
Serum Metabolites as Diagnostic Biomarkers for Cholangiocarcinoma, Hepatocellular Carcinoma, and Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
(Wiley, 2019-08)
Early and differential diagnosis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by noninvasive methods represents a current clinical challenge. The analysis of low-molecular-weight metabolites ...
A Novel Approach on the Use of Samples from Faecal Occult Blood Screening Kits for Metabolomics Analysis: Application in Colorectal Cancer Population
(MDPI, 2023-02-21)
The incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) is increasing, and currently it is the third most common cancer. Early CRC diagnosis is still difficult and relies on an invasive colonoscopy and tissue biopsy. The globally observed ...
Surveillance of Helicobacter pylori resistance over 22 Years (2000-2021) in Northern Spain
(Elsevier, 2023-09)
Objectives
Helicobacter pylori gastritis is considered an infectious disease, regardless of symptoms and stage of disease. Most consensus documents recommend empirical therapy based on local antimicrobial susceptibility ...
