The unfolded protein response to PIZ alpha-1 antitrypsin in human hepatocellular and murine models

Yuanqing Lu et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that PI*Z AAT triggers canonical UPR and hepatocytes survive pro-apoptotic UPR by selective suppression of UPR branches, providing a better understanding of the underlying pathological molecular mechanisms of PI*Z AATD liver disease.

The Mechanism of Mitochondrial Injury in Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency Mediated Liver Disease

Nazli Khodayari et al.

Summary: Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is caused by a single mutation in the SERPINA1 gene, leading to the accumulation of misfolded alpha-1 antitrypsin (ZAAT) in hepatocytes, which is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. Research has shown that ZAAT aggregation in hepatocytes results in abnormal mitochondrial morphology and function, disrupting lipid metabolism balance.

Dynamic Shifts in the Composition of Resident and Recruited Macrophages Influence Tissue Remodeling in NASH

Sabine Daemen et al.

Summary: The study reveals that changes in liver macrophage subsets during the pathogenesis of NASH are dynamically linked to pathologic tissue remodeling. High-fat, high-sucrose-diet feeding leads to a decrease in mature TIM4(pos) Kupffer cells (KCs) and an accumulation of monocyte-derived Tim4(neg) macrophages in the liver. Additionally, C-LAMs expressing Cx3cr1/Ccr2 fail to appear in the liver in Ccr2-deficient mice, preventing the formation of hCLS and resulting in increased liver fibrosis.

Kupffer cell receptor CLEC4F is important for the destruction of desialylated platelets in mice

Yizhi Jiang et al.

Summary: The study found that CLEC4F is a key receptor on Kupffer cells in the liver that mediates the phagocytosis of desialylated platelets. This discovery provides new insights into the pathogenesis of thrombocytopenia in disease conditions like sepsis.

Modeling Diet-Induced NAFLD and NASH in Rats: A Comprehensive Review

Lydie Carreres et al.

Summary: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease, and research is focusing on decoding the molecular mechanisms behind it to identify new therapeutic targets. Reliable, simple, and reproducible tools are necessary for investigating these pathways, with animal models such as diet-induced NAFLD and NASH being developed to mimic the human disease. Rat models, specifically the dietary model of NAFLD and NASH, are being used to study different dietary compositions and their effects on liver pathogenesis.

Quantitative measurement of the histological features of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency-associated liver disease in biopsy specimens

George Marek et al.

Summary: The study developed a method to quantify polymer aggregation in AATD individuals and found that accumulation of polymers is associated with higher fibrosis stages, with males having more liver inclusions and polymer than females. These measurements also highlighted the interrelated phenotypes of hepatocellular degeneration and autophagy in AATD liver disease.

CD8+ tissue-resident memory T cells promote liver fibrosis resolution by inducing apoptosis of hepatic stellate cells

Yuzo Koda et al.

Summary: The study identified CD8+ tissue-resident memory T cells as key players in resolving liver fibrosis, potentially through Fas-mediated cytotoxicity to eliminate hepatic stellate cells.
