Loss of Bile Salt Export Pump (Bsep/Abcb11) Ameliorates Toxin-induced Hepatic Fibrosis via Suppression of Hepatocellular Jun Amino-terminal Kinase Signaling and Hepatic Stellate Cell Activation
Loss of Bsep/Abcb11 results in a hydrophilic bile acid (BA) pool consisting of tetrahydroxylated BAs (THBAs) reducing cholestasis-induced liver injury. In this study, we investigated whether loss of B...

A recent @meduniwien.ac.at study investigated #cirrhosis pts with variceal bleeding over two 🕐 🕕 🕘 decades:
✅ decreasing rebleeding🩸rates
✅ lower bleeding-related ☠️ mortality
in the more recent decade ☺️

Improved clinical outcomes of patients with cirrhosis and acute variceal bleeding over the last 2 decades
Acute variceal bleeding (AVB), a severe adverse event of portal hypertension, may cause death in patients with cirrhosis. We investigated whether outcomes after AVB have improved over time.

Transcriptome analysis shows that 67% (n=13563) of all human proteins (n=20162) are expressed in the liver and 978 of these genes show an elevated expression in the liver compared to other tissue types.
