🌟New study shows #Sinomenine (SIN), a natural alkaloid, protects against #fibrosis in mice & #HSCs by blocking TGF-β/SMAD & c-JUN signaling.
📉 ↓ Collagen & α-SMA
🛡️ ↓ Liver injury & inflammation
🚀 SIN = a promising anti-fibrotic therapy!

📢New in #Hepatology:
AI model (preoperative CT & clinical data) predicts #HCC recurrence.
✅Predicts recurrence 1–5 years out with AUROC ~0.8
✅Beats microvascular invasion & multiple clinical risk scores

📉 New insights into #MASLD-#cACLD
1️⃣ First #decompensation ↑ liver-related death risk 18.9-fold ☠️
2️⃣ Further decompensation adds 1.52-fold risk ⚠️
3️⃣ Ascites is the most common event
4️⃣ #HCC worsens outcomes🧬
5️⃣ High extrahepatic death burden due to metabolic risk ❤️🧠

📢New in @JCSM_cachexia :
Combining fat distribution + BMI redefines obesity.
Centripetal obesity indicators outperformed BMI alone in predicting all-cause mortality.
It’s time to rethink how we define and evaluate #obesity in clinical practice.

How does your diet affect liver health?
🍽️High branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) intake ↑ #MASLD risk
🟢Higher arginine intake ↓ risk significantly
💪Balanced amino acid profiles are key for prevention

🚨 Just published: My new paper, “Gut-derived serotonin as a molecular mediator of gravity management.” Serotonin helps us stand, balance, circulate blood, adapt to gravity—thanks to the gut microbiome. Disruptions may underlie POTS, IBS, and more. Read: neurogastrolatamreviews.com/frame_eng.php?…

🧫 Mesenchymal #stemcells (#MSCs) suppress pro-fibrotic intrahepatic B cells via exosomes, easing #liverfibrosis by blocking MAPK/NF-κB pathways
📉 ↓ B cell activation
📉 ↓ Inflammation & collagen
🧬 B cells = new therapeutic target

🚨 Vitamin D isn't just for bones🦴—it may reduce liver inflammation & fibrosis!
🟡 Low vitamin D = worse liver outcomes
🧪 TXNIP knockout = more fibrosis
🎯 Vitamin D/TXNIP axis = a promising therapeutic target!
