Kavita Radhakrishnan, Adrian M. Di Bisceglie, K. Rajender Reddy, Joseph K. Lim, Josh Levitsky, Mohamed A. Hassan, Jama M. Darling, Jordan J. Feld, Lucy Akushevich, Monika Vainorius, David R. Nelson, Michael W. Fried, Robert S. Brown, Norah A. Terrault – 7 August 2019 – Recent studies have suggested a negative impact of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) on sustained virologic response (SVR) to hepatitis C virus (HCV) direct acting antivirals (DAAs).

Liver X Receptor α–Induced Cannabinoid Receptor 2 Inhibits Ubiquitin‐Specific Peptidase 4 Through miR‐27b, Protecting Hepatocytes From TGF‐β

Hong Min Wu, Tae Hyun Kim, Ayoung Kim, Ja Hyun Koo, Min Sung Joo, Sang Geon Kim – 5 August 2019 – Liver X receptor‐alpha (LXRα) acts as a double‐edged sword in different biological situations. Given the elusive role of LXRα in hepatocyte viability, this study investigated whether LXRα protects hepatocytes from injurious stimuli and the underlying basis. LXRα activation prevented hepatocyte apoptosis from CCl4 challenges in mice.
