Alcohol-Induced Liver Injury
There are three phases of alcoholic liver disease: fatty liver, which is usually reversible with abstinence; alcoholic hepatitis, or liver inflammation; and cirrhosis, or scarring of the liver. Patients frequently have more than one type of liver disease, such as coexisting fatty liver and alcoholic hepatitis or alcoholic hepatitis together with cirrhosis. Patients with both cirrhosis and alcoh...
متن کاملAutophagy in adipose tissue.
The possible involvement of the evolutionarily conserved process of autophagy (selfeating) in the pathogenesis of human diseases has been increasingly appreciated in recent years. However, at present, many fundamental questions remain to be answered before autophagy can be considered as a therapeutic target: The biological consequences of activating or inhibiting the process are very much cell ...
متن کاملAcute Alcohol-Induced Liver Injury
Alcohol consumption is customary in most cultures and alcohol abuse is common worldwide. For example, more than 50% of Americans consume alcohol, with an estimated 23.1% of Americans participating in heavy and/or binge drinking at least once a month. A safe and effective therapy for alcoholic liver disease (ALD) in humans is still elusive, despite significant advances in our understanding of ho...
متن کاملHepatoprotective Effects of Curcumin Nanomicells in Alcohol-induced Liver Injury: Comparison with Curcumin and Silymarin in Mice Model
Background: Curcumin ameloriates liver damages but its poor absorption, rapid metabolism, and side effects at high doses may limit its clinical applications Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the protective and regenerative effects of Curcumin Nanomicells on alcohol-induced chronic liver injuries in mice. These effects were compared with Curcumin and Silymarin in the same model. Method...
متن کاملCold-Induced Changes in Gene Expression in Brown Adipose Tissue, White Adipose Tissue and Liver
Cold exposure imposes a metabolic challenge to mammals that is met by a coordinated response in different tissues to prevent hypothermia. This study reports a transcriptomic analysis in brown adipose tissue (BAT), white adipose (WAT) and liver of mice in response to 24 h cold exposure at 8°C. Expression of 1895 genes were significantly (P<0.05) up- or down-regulated more than two fold by cold e...
