Abstract As a highly complex organ with digestive, endocrine, and immune-regulatory functions, the liver is pivotal in maintaining physiological homeostasis through its roles metabolism, detoxification, immune response. Various factors including viruses, alcohol, metabolites, toxins, other pathogenic agents can compromise function, leading to acute or chronic injury that may progress end-stage diseases. While sharing common features, diseases exhibit distinct pathophysiological, clinical, therapeutic profiles. Currently, contribute approximately 2 million deaths globally each year, imposing significant economic social burdens worldwide. However, there no cure for many kinds of diseases, partly due lack thorough understanding development these Therefore, this review provides comprehensive examination epidemiology characteristics covering spectrum from conditions manifestations. We also highlight multifaceted mechanisms underlying initiation progression spanning molecular cellular levels networks. Additionally, offers updates on innovative diagnostic techniques, current treatments, potential targets presently under clinical evaluation. Recent advances pathogenesis hold critical implications translational value novel strategies.

BACKGROUND Alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is a leading cause of liver-related morbidity and mortality, but there are no therapeutic targets modalities to prevent ALD-related fibrosis. Peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) α δ play key role in lipid metabolism intestinal barrier homeostasis, which major contributors the pathological progression ALD. Meanwhile, elafibranor (EFN), dual PPARα PPARδ agonist, has reached phase III clinical trial for treatment metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic primary biliary cholangitis. However, benefits EFN ALD unknown. AIM To evaluate inhibitory effects on fibrosis gut-intestinal dysfunction an mouse model. METHODS was induced female C57BL/6J mice by feeding 2.5% ethanol (EtOH)-containing Lieber-DeCarli liquid diet intraperitoneally injecting carbon tetrachloride thrice weekly (1 mL/kg) 8 weeks. (3 10 mg/kg/day) orally administered during experimental period. Histological molecular analyses were performed assess effect steatohepatitis, fibrosis, integrity.

Alcohol-associated hepatitis (AH) is an acute-on-chronic liver injury that occurs in patients with chronic alcohol-associated disease (ALD). Patients severe AH have high short-term mortality and lack effective pharmacologic therapies. Inflammation believed to be one of the key factors promoting progression has been actively investigated as therapeutic targets over last several decades, but no inflammatory identified so far. In this review, we discuss how cells mediators produced by these contribute development AH, focus on neutrophils macrophages. The crosstalk between nonparenchymal pathogenesis elaborated. We also deliberate application recent cutting-edge technologies characterizing inflammation AH. Finally, potential for are briefly summarized.

Alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is a growing global health concern and its prevalence severity are increasing steadily. While bacterial endotoxin translocation into the portal circulation well-established key factor, recent evidence highlights critical role of sterile inflammation, triggered by diverse stimuli, in alcohol-induced injury. This review provides comprehensive analysis complex interactions within hepatic microenvironment ALD. It examines contributions both parenchymal cells, like hepatocytes, non-parenchymal such as stellate Kupffer neutrophils, sinusoidal endothelial driving progression disease. Additionally, we explored involvement mediators, including cytokines, chemokines inflammasomes, which regulate inflammatory responses promote injury fibrosis. A particular focus has been placed on extracellular vesicles (EVs) essential mediators intercellular communication beyond liver. These facilitate transfer signalling molecules, microRNAs proteins, modulate immune responses, fibrogenesis lipid metabolism, thereby influencing progression. Moreover, underscore importance organ-to-organ crosstalk, particularly gut-liver axis, where dysbiosis increased intestinal permeability lead to microbial translocation, exacerbating inflammation. The adipose-liver axis also highlighted, impact adipokines free fatty acids from adipose tissue steatosis inflammation context alcohol consumption.

Abstract Alcohol‐related liver disease (ALD) is a common chronic caused by long‐term excessive alcohol consumption and responsible for more than half of all liver‐related deaths worldwide. The molecular mechanisms associated with ALD were not fully understood. In this study, we performed single‐cell RNA sequencing on tissues obtained from patients healthy donors. We identified an ALB + KRT7 epithelial population that expressed both hepatocyte biliary markers significantly expanded in livers. cells demonstrated to have stem cell properties malignant transformation potentials. Moreover, epithelium‐derived organoids promote the tumour growth activating Wnt/β‐catenin signalling cancer cells. Most importantly, blocking Wnt protein secretion or knockdown receptor suppressed promoting effect organoids. Our study provides important insights can be targeted advanced alcohol‐related cirrhosis prevent transformation. addition, our results also uncovered alterations nonparenchymal cells, especially macrophages T/NK populations active inflammation responses hepatitis immunosuppressive microenvironment livers, which likely facilitated progression ALD. Key points This landscape human samples across different stages. epithelium enriched patients, function varied had potential promotion activity. comprehensive changes parenchymal livers lay hidden danger further progression.
