A new machine learning model built using a simple and interpretable approach predicts in-hospital death in patients with acute liver failure and reveals top risk drivers.
A new mouse model mimicking the liver symptoms of myotonic dystrophy type 1 -- the most prevalent form of adult-onset muscular dystrophy -- provides insight into why patients develop fatty liver ...
The liver has a unique structure, especially at the level of individual cells. Hepatocytes, the main liver cells, release bile into tiny channels called bile canaliculi, which drain into the bile duct ...
Discover how cfDNA fragmentome tests could help detect liver disease early and track health. Learn more about this emerging ...
Periportal assembloid, with the three component cell types visualized: cholangiocytes in pink, portal fibroblasts in green, and hepatocyte nuclei in blue; all cell borders are visualized in white. New ...
A microscopic model of the human liver to study the effects of different food contaminants. The spherical model, measuring 0.3 mm in diameter, includes the four cell types found in the human liver.
