We report a case of de novo hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in a patient with recurrent hepatitis C (HCV) and cirrhosis 7 years after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). This is a previously unreported observation in the natural history of posttransplantantion HCV infection and reiterates the strong oncogenic potential of HCV.

Long-term outcome and risk stratification in compensated advanced chronic liver disease after HCV-cure.
Hepatology
February 2025
Department of Medicine III, Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.
Background And Aims: Around 750,000 patients per year will be cured of HCV infection until 2030. Those with compensated advanced chronic liver disease remain at risk for hepatic decompensation and de novo HCC. Algorithms have been developed to stratify risk early after cure; however, data on long-term outcomes and the prognostic utility of these risk stratification algorithms at later time points are lacking.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), also known as metabolic dysfunction- associated with fatty liver disease (MAFLD), is one of the most prevalent chronic liver diseases globally. NAFLD is characterized by the accumulation of liver fat unrelated to excessive alcohol consumption. Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is the disease progression of NAFLD and could develop into cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Background: Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), an advanced manifestation of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is characterized by hepatocyte injury, inflammation, and fibrosis. Saturated fatty acids (SFAs) have emerged as key contributors to hepatocyte lipotoxicity and disease progression. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) acts as a sentinel for diverse ligands, including lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and endogenous molecules like palmitic acid (PA)-induced ceramide (CER) accumulation, promoting hepatocyte demise.

While deemed potentially curative, surgical resection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is associated with >70% risk of post-operative relapse. Recurrence is uniquely multifactorial in HCC, potentially stemming from metachronous re-occurrence of the original tumor or de novo cancerization. Circulating tumor DNA may improve personalized risk stratification post-resection, a setting where adjuvant immunotherapy has failed to provide survival benefits.

Background & Aims: The ubiquitin receptor ADRM1/Rpn13 governs the specificity of eukaryotic protein degradation. By SMRT sequencing, we first discovered a novel spliced variant of ADRM1 with a skipped exon 9, termed ADRM1-ΔEx9, in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aimed to elucidate this novel ubiquitin receptor's underlying biology and clinical implications in HCC.
