A Transforming Growth Factor‐β and H19 Signaling Axis in Tumor‐Initiating Hepatocytes That Regulates Hepatic Carcinogenesis

Jinqiang Zhang, Chang Han, Nathan Ungerleider, Weina Chen, Kyoungsub Song, Ying Wang, Hyunjoo Kwon, Wenbo Ma, Tong Wu – 16 July 2018 – Functions of transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) in the liver vary depending on specific cell types and their temporal response to TGF‐β during different stages of hepatocarcinogenesis (HCG). Through analysis of tumor tissues from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients, we were able to cluster hepatic epithelial cell‐derived TGF‐β gene signatures in association with distinct clinical prognoses.

Changing Trends in Etiology‐Based and Ethnicity‐Based Annual Mortality Rates of Cirrhosis and Hepatocellular Carcinoma in the United States

Donghee Kim, Andrew A. Li, Brandon J. Perumpail, Chiranjeevi Gadiparthi, Won Kim, George Cholankeril, Jeffrey S. Glenn, Stephen A. Harrison, Zobair M. Younossi, Aijaz Ahmed – 16 July 2018 – With recent improvements in the treatment of end‐stage liver disease (ESLD), a better understanding of the burden of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is needed in the United States. A population‐based study using the US Census and national mortality database was performed.

MicroRNA Sequencing Identifies a Serum MicroRNA Panel, Which Combined With Aspartate Aminotransferase to Platelet Ratio Index Can Detect and Monitor Liver Disease in Pediatric Cystic Fibrosis

Diego A. Calvopina, Mark D. Chatfield, Anna Weis, Miranda A. Coleman, Manuel A. Fernandez‐Rojo, Charlton Noble, Louise E. Ramm, Daniel H. Leung, Peter J. Lewindon, Grant A. Ramm – 16 July 2018 – Cystic fibrosis (CF)‐associated liver disease (CFLD) is a hepatobiliary complication of CF. Current diagnostic modalities rely on nonspecific assessments, whereas liver biopsy is the gold standard to assess severity of fibrosis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate liver disease pathogenesis and are proposed as diagnostic biomarkers.

Transcriptome‐Wide Analysis Reveals the Landscape of Aberrant Alternative Splicing Events in Liver Cancer

Shengli Li, Zhixiang Hu, Yingjun Zhao, Shenglin Huang, Xianghuo He – 16 July 2018 – Alternative splicing (AS) is assumed to be a pivotal determinant for the generation of diverse transcriptional variants in cancer. However, the comprehensive dysregulation of AS and the prospective biological and clinical relevance in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain obscure. Here, we identified and depicted the AS landscape in HCC by performing reference‐based assembly of sequencing reads from over 600 RNA sequencing (RNA‐seq) libraries.
