Scientists identify measurable cellular changes that flag higher cancer risk more than a decade before tumors appear. In A ...
By recreating a fetal liver niche, FLOs show how liver and immune cells co-develop. Learn more about new groundbreaking ...
A fatty diet doesn’t just damage the liver — it rewires its cells in ways that give cancer a dangerous head start.
Until now, doctors knew hepatic stellate cells mainly as drivers of liver fibrosis. The actual functions of this cell type have hardly been studied to date. Researchers have now determined that ...
In a new study, researchers from Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan, have utilized bile acids as farnesoid X receptor agonists to develop unique hepatic organoids that are capable of sustained, ...
Scientists at University of California San Diego School of Medicine have shed new light on the development of liver cancer, the sixth most frequently diagnosed cancer and fourth leading cause of ...
Scientists have uncovered a surprising dual identity of stellate cells—star-shaped liver cells once known only for causing liver scarring. Before they turn destructive, these cells act as crucial ...
For the first time, scientists are attempting to grow a new, miniature liver inside of a person. It sounds like science fiction; in fact, the idea was the plot of a Grey’s Anatomy episode that aired ...
What does the inside of a cell really look like? In the past, standard microscopes were limited in how well they could answer this question. Now, researchers from the Universities of Göttingen and ...
