Signalling of the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) through RAMP1 promotes liver fibrosis via TGFβ1/Smad2 and YAP pathways.

The liver is innervated by primary sensory nerve fibres releasing the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). Elevated plasma levels of CGRP have been found in patients with liver fibrosis or cirrhosis. We hypothesised that signalling of CGRP and its receptors might regulate liver fibrosis and propose a novel potential target for the treatment.

Liver Resection in Synchronous Bilobar versus Unilobar Colorectal Liver Metastases: A Retrospective Analysis of Oncological Outcomes and Patient Survival.

Introduction: Resection of colorectal liver metastasis has emerged as the standard treatment. Our study compares oncological outcomes of patients with resected synchronous bilobar versus unilobar colorectal liver metastasis.

Methods: This retrospective study presents long-term follow-up data of 105 consecutive patients with primary colorectal cancer and synchronous liver metastasis.

Cell Death in Liver Disease and Liver Surgery.

Cell death is crucial for maintaining tissue balance and responding to diseases. However, under pathological conditions, the surge in dying cells results in an overwhelming presence of cell debris and the release of danger signals. In the liver, this gives rise to hepatic inflammation and hepatocellular cell death, which are key factors in various liver diseases caused by viruses, toxins, metabolic issues, or autoimmune factors.

Liver Fibrosis Is Associated with Poorer Overall Survival and Higher Recurrence Rate in Patients with Cholangiocarcinoma.

Introduction: Cholangiocarcinoma is the second most common primary liver tumour worldwide with an increasing incidence in recent decades. While the effects of fibrosis on hepatocellular carcinoma have been widely demonstrated, the impact on cholangiocarcinoma remains unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of liver fibrosis on overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in patients who have undergone liver resection for cholangiocarcinoma.

Pyroptosis and gasdermins-Emerging insights and therapeutic opportunities in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis.

In recent years, there has been a rapid expansion in our understanding of regulated cell death, leading to the discovery of novel mechanisms that govern diverse cell death pathways. One recently discovered type of cell death is pyroptosis, initially identified in the 1990s as a caspase-1-dependent lytic cell death. However, further investigations have redefined pyroptosis as a regulated cell death that relies on the activation of pore-forming proteins, particularly the gasdermin family.

A nationwide population-based study on the clinical and economic burden of anastomotic leakage in colorectal surgery.

Aim: Anastomotic leakage (AL) is one of the most dreaded complications in colorectal surgery. In 2013, the International Classification of Diseases code K91.83 for AL was introduced in Germany, allowing nationwide analysis of AL rates and associated parameters.
