Recent studies have investigated the roles of FXR deficiency in the pathogenesis of alcoholic liver disease (ALD). However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, FXR knockout (FXR-/-) and wild-type (WT) mice were subjected to chronic-plus-binge alcohol feeding to study the effect of FXR deficiency on ALD development. Th...
Emerging evidence has shown that FXR activation ameliorates the development of alcoholic liver diseases (ALD) while whole-body deficiency of FXR in mice leads to more severe ALD. However, it’s unknown whether the enhanced susceptibility to ALD development in FXR−/− mice is due to deficiency of hepatic FXR or increased toxicity secondary to increase...
The role of intestine-derived factors in promoting liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy (PHx) are not entirely known, but bile acids (BAs) and fibroblast growth factor 15 (Fgf15) that is highly expressed in the mouse ileum could promote hepatocyte proliferation. Fgf15 strongly suppresses the synthesis of BAs and emerging evidence indicates...

... The diversity of T cells, which play an important role in viral elimination (Kumar et al., 2018), gradually decreases and shows a sharp decline after age 40 years (Simnica et al., 2019). One study showed that in patients with Omicron, younger people had higher levels of neutralizing antibodies (Liang et al., 2022). These differences may allow faster and more efficient viral clearing in younger patients, without significantly affecting the immune system, so that their lymphocyte counts remain within the normal range; this is supported by evidence that clinical symptoms among younger patients are relatively mild compared with those of older adults (Davies et al., 2020). ...
... Additionally, AgNPs extracted from T. quadrivalvis have shown strong antiviral activity against various respiratory viruses such as Influenza A and human respiratory syncytial virus. The combination of AgNPs and macrolides can potentially be used in treating respiratory tract infections induced by these viruses, providing a new approach to the treatment of these infections [51]. ...

... Their data showed that patients with NAFLD showed a worse BMD status than those without NAFLD. The incidence rates of osteopenia (42.86% versus 25.93%) and osteoporosis (17.14% versus 3.70%) were significantly higher in PLWHIV with NAFLD than in those without NAFLD, and the odds ratio (OR) for patients with NAFLD exhibiting a worse BMD status compared with those without NAFLD was 4.49 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.42, 14.15) [68]. Therefore, further research is needed to establish a link between all of these metabolic changes and the risk of osteoporosis in PLWHIV. ...
... In precise, CQ is extensively used as immunomodulator with anti-malarial activity [74][75][76][77][78]. Recently, an in vitro study revealed that, SARS-CoV-2 growth was found to be inhibited by CQ and these results have been reinforced by clinical trials on approximately 100 patients infected by SARS-CoV-2 [56,57,79,80]. In addition, it is more toxic than HCQ [54,55] and an overdose of CQ can be the reason of acute poisoning and death [81]. ...
