Effect of Hepatic Lipid Overload on Accelerated Hepatocyte Proliferation Promoted by HGF Expression via the SphK1/S1PR2 Pathway in MCD-diet Mouse Partial Hepatectomy.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is becoming a major health problem worldwide. Liver regeneration is crucial for restoring liver function, and is regulated by extraordinary complex process, involving numerous factors under both physiologic and pathologic conditions. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), a bioactive sphingolipid synthesized by sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1), plays an important role in liver function through S1P receptors (S1PRs)-expressing cells.

HMGB2 Promotes De Novo Lipogenesis to Accelerate Hepatocyte Proliferation During Liver Regeneration.

Liver regeneration is a well-orchestrated compensatory process that is regulated by multiple factors. We recently reported the importance of the chromatin protein, a high-mobility group box 2 (HMGB2) in mouse liver regeneration. However, the molecular mechanism remains unclear.

Internal Jugular and Subclavian Vein Thrombosis in a Case of Ovarian Cancer.

Central venous catheter insertion and cancer represent some of the important predisposing factors for deep venous thrombosis (DVT). DVT usually develops in the lower extremities, and venous thrombosis of the upper extremities is uncommon. Early diagnosis and treatment of deep venous thrombosis are of importance, because it is a precursor of complications such as pulmonary embolism and postthrombotic syndrome.
