A new process involving 'sugar coated' cells could help to treat liver disease without needing an organ transplant.

including liver microtissues and endothelial cells, which line blood vessels. The coated HPCs demonstrated a much higher adhesion rate to liver microtissues and other cells compared to uncoated cells.

Hepatitis D virus (HDV) infects the liver and causes severe inflammation. According to WHO estimates, 12 million people worldwide are infected with HDV. Currently, there are only a few treatment ...

Using a human liver cell line, the team showed that the occurrence of polyploidy did not always lead to the process called "senescence," by which cells stop dividing.

Using a human liver cell line, the team showed that the occurrence of polyploidy did not always lead to the process called "senescence", by which cells stop dividing.

The team demonstrated this both in mouse liver cancer cells and in several human cancer cell lines. The findings are published in the journal Nature Metabolism .

(E) The relative expression of STARD4 in normal liver cell line and 7 strains of hepatocellular carcinoma cells was detected by quantitative reverse transcription PCR. The data were shown as mean ...
