Liver is an important organ for glucose and lipid metabolism, immunity, and detoxification in fish. However, the gene regulatory network of postnatal liver development still remains unknown in teleost fish. In this study, we performed transcriptome analysis on the liver of at three stages. A total of 1692 differentially expressed genes (DGEs) were identified across three liver developmental stages. The oil red O staining and PAS staining revealed that the lipid content of liver was increased and the glycogen content of liver was decreased during liver development. The fatty acids biosynthesis related genes were upregulated in adult and young stages compared with juvenile stage, while lipid degradation related genes were downregulated. The genes related to glycolysis, gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis were upregulated in juvenile or young stages compared with adult stage. Further pathway analysis indicated that the CYP450 pathway, cell cycle and amino acid metabolic pathway were induced in the process of liver maturation. Our study presents the gene expression pattern in different liver development stages of and may guide future studies on metabolism of liver.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) leads to a more rapid development of DM cardiomyopathy (dbCM) and progression to heart failure in women than men. Combination of high-fat diet (HFD) and freshly-injected streptozotocin (STZ) has been widely used for DM induction, however emerging data shows that anomer-equilibrated STZ produces an early onset and robust DM model. We designed a novel protocol utilising a combination of multiple doses of anomer-equilibrated STZ injections and HFD to develop a stable murine DM model featuring dbCM analogous to humans.

Background: Our previous research demonstrated that growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) exhibited superior predictive capability for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) development with an AUC of 0.86 at 10 years before disease diagnosis. However, the specific pathways and molecular mechanisms associated with GDF15 expression during MASH development remain to be fully investigated in humans.

Liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC) is a highly heterogeneous disease, necessitating the discovery of novel biomarkers to enhance individualized treatment approaches. Recent research has shown the significant involvement of ubiquitin-related genes (UbRGs) in the progression of LIHC. However, the prognostic value of UbRGs in LIHC has not been investigated.

Novel technique and outcomes of umbilical reconstruction during cytoreductive surgery; a multi-centre study.

Background: The goal of cytoreductive surgery for peritoneal malignancy is to remove all macroscopic disease, which occasionally requires the excision of the umbilicus. While the absence of the umbilicus can be aesthetically undesirable for patients, umbilical reconstruction is rarely performed due to the perceived complexity and increased risk of wound infections (Sakata et al. in Colorectal Dis 23:1153-1157, 2021).

Purpose: Liver and lung metastases demonstrate distinct biological, particularly immunological, characteristics. We investigated whether preoperative complete blood count (CBC) parameters, which may reflect the immune system condition, predict early dissemination to the liver and lungs in colorectal cancer (CRC).

Methods: In this retrospective single-centre study, we included 268 resected CRC cases with complete 2-year follow-up and analysed preoperative CBC for association with early liver or lung metastasis development.
