Journal ArticleDOI

Progressive stages of mitochondrial destruction caused by cell toxic bile salts.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that GCDCA and TCDCA, but not TUDCA, preferentially permeabilize liposomes containing the mitochondrial membrane protein ANT, a process resembling the MPT induction in whole mitochondria, which suggests that ANT is one decisive target for toxic bile salts.
Journal ArticleDOI

1,25-(OH)₂-vitamin D₃ prevents activation of hepatic stellate cells in vitro and ameliorates inflammatory liver damage but not fibrosis in the Abcb4(-/-) model.

TL;DR: Test the hypothesis that active 1,25-(OH)2-vitamin D3 inhibits activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSC) in vitro and modulates liver-injury in vivo and calcitriol ameliorates inflammatory liver-damage but has no effect on biliary fibrosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of interleukin-1 and its antagonism of hepatic stellate cell proliferation and liver fibrosis in the Abcb4(-/-) mouse model.

TL;DR: Liver fibrosis was less pronounced in males than in female Abcb4(-/-) animals as defined by a lower hydroxyproline content and Sirius red staining, and the administration of IL-1β resulted in a significant increase in HSC proliferation, in vitro and in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lifestyle intervention for morbid obesity: effects on liver steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis

TL;DR: New evidence is demonstrated that lifestyle intervention is effective in treating NAFLD in the important group of patients with (morbid) obesity, and patients with weight loss of >10% seemed to benefit most.
