Nathanson, Jittima Weerachayaphorn – 10 October 2017 – Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most prevalent liver disease worldwide. It may result in several types of liver problems, including impaired liver regeneration (LR), but the mechanism for this is unknown.

Weinman, Irina Tikhanovich – 10 October 2017 – Alcohol is a well‐established risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but the mechanisms by which it promotes liver cancer are not well understood. Several studies have shown that cellular protein arginine methylation is inhibited by alcohol.

Stevan A. Gonzalez, James F. Trotter – 10 October 2017 – The use of hepatitis C virus (HCV)‐positive organs in liver transplantation (LT) has increased in the era of direct‐acting antiviral therapy. A rising demand for organs, the increased ability to effectively treat HCV infection in the transplant setting, and an unprecedented increase in HCV‐positive donors have all contributed to this trend. A recent abrupt rise in opioid use in the United States has resulted in a surge of injection drug use, transmission of HCV, and opioid‐related overdose deaths.

Frédéric Le Gal, Ségolène Brichler, Tudor Drugan, Chakib Alloui, Dominique Roulot, Jean‐Michel Pawlotsky, Paul Dény, Emmanuel Gordien – 9 October 2017 – Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is responsible for the most severe form of acute and chronic viral hepatitis. We previously proposed that the Deltavirus genus is composed of eight major clades. However, few sequences were available to confirm this classification. Moreover, little is known about the structural and functional consequences of HDV variability.
