The impact of phlebotomy in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease: A prospective, randomized, controlled trial
Leon A. Adams, Darrell H. Crawford, Katherine Stuart, Michael J. House, Timothy G. St. Pierre, Malcolm Webb, Helena L.I. Ching, Jenny Kava, Michael Bynevelt, Gerry C. MacQuillan, George Garas, Oyekoya T. Ayonrinde, Trevor A. Mori, Kevin D. Croft, Xianwa Niu, Gary P. Jeffrey, John K. Olynyk – 18 December 2014 – Iron is implicated in the pathogenesis of liver injury and insulin resistance (IR) and thus phlebotomy has been proposed as a treatment for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

Determining the fate of hepatic cells by lineage tracing: Facts and pitfalls
Frédéric P. Lemaigre – 12 December 2014 – Slow renewal of the epithelial cells by proliferation ensures homeostasis of the liver, but extensive proliferation may occur upon injury. When proliferation is impaired, transdifferentiation of mature cells or differentiation of stem cells allows production of new hepatocytes and cholangiocytes. While lineage tracings using cyclization recombinase (Cre) recombinase–mediated cell labeling represent the gold standard for defining cell fate, there are more variables than was initially realized.

Vps4A functions as a tumor suppressor by regulating the secretion and uptake of exosomal microRNAs in human hepatoma cells
Jin‐xing Wei, Li‐hong Lv, Yun‐le Wan, Yang Cao, Guo‐lin Li, Hao‐ming Lin, Rui Zhou, Chang‐zhen Shang, Jun Cao, Hai He, Qing‐fang Han, Pei‐qing Liu, Gang Zhou, Jun Min – 12 December 2014 – The deregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) plays an important role in human hepatocarcinogenesis. In this study, we highlight exosomes as mediators involved in modulating miRNA profiles in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. First, we examined the different miRNA expression profiles in HCC cells and HCC cell–derived exosomes.
