Vladislav Volarevic, Marija Milovanovic, Biljana Ljujic, Nada Pejnovic, Nebojsa Arsenijevic, Ulf Nilsson, Hakon Leffler, Miodrag L. Lukic – 24 December 2011 – We used concanavalin A (Con A)‐induced liver injury to study the role of galectin‐3 (Gal‐3) in the induction of inflammatory pathology and hepatocellular damage.
Ashwani K. Singal, Hmoud Bashar, Bhupinderjit S. Anand, Sarat C. Jampana, Vineet Singal, Yong‐Fang Kuo – 24 December 2011 – Data on liver transplantation for patients with alcoholic hepatitis are limited. Using the United Network for Organ Sharing database (2004‐2010), adults undergoing liver transplantation for a listing diagnosis of alcoholic hepatitis were matched for age, gender, ethnicity, and model for endstage disease (MELD) score, donor risk index, and year of transplantation with three patients transplanted for a listing diagnosis of alcoholic cirrhosis.

Shelby Sullivan, Erik P. Kirk, Bettina Mittendorfer, Bruce W. Patterson, Samuel Klein – 24 December 2011 – Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and alterations in hepatic lipoprotein kinetics are common metabolic complications associated with obesity. Lifestyle modification involving diet‐induced weight loss and regular exercise decreases intrahepatic triglyceride (IHTG) content and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) triglyceride (TG) secretion rate.
Tung Ming Leung, Yongke Lu, Wei Yan, José A. Morón‐Concepción, Stephen C. Ward, Xiaodong Ge, Laura Conde de la Rosa, Natalia Nieto – 24 December 2011 – Argininosuccinate synthase (ASS) is the rate‐limiting enzyme in both the urea and the L‐citrulline/nitric oxide (NO·) cycles regulating protein catabolism, ammonia levels, and NO· generation.

Evangelos Cholongitas, Eleni Theocharidou, Panayota Vasianopoulou, Alex Betrosian, Steve Shaw, David Patch, James O'Beirne, Banwari Agarwal, Andrew K. Burroughs – 23 December 2011 – Acetaminophen‐induced acute liver failure (ALF) is a complex multiorgan illness. An assessment of the prognosis is essential for the accurate identification of patients for whom survival without liver transplantation (LT) is unlikely.
