Baveno VII – Renewing consensus in portal hypertension
2022
To expand on the work of previous meetings, a virtual Baveno VII workshop was organised for October 2021. Among patients with compensated cirrhosis or compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD – defined at the Baveno VI conference), the presence or absence of clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) is associated with differing outcomes, including risk of death, and different diagnostic and therapeutic needs. Accordingly, the Baveno VII workshop was entitled “Personalized Care for Portal Hypertension”. The main fields of discussion were the relevance and indications for measuring the hepatic venous pressure gradient as a gold standard, the use of non-invasive tools for the …
Interconnections among inflammation, chronic liver disease and HIV: understanding the hepatoprotective effects of the antiretroviral drug rilpivirine
2022
INTRODUCCIÓN Durante las últimas décadas, la utilización de la terapia antirretroviral combinada (TARc) para combatir la infección por el virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana (VIH) ha convertido esta enfermedad en una patología crónica. A pesar de que la TARc ha mejorado enormemente la calidad de vida de los pacientes, según diversos estudios epidemiológicos, estos pacientes envejecen antes y sufren de enfermedades relacionadas con la edad como cáncer, osteoporosis, enfermedades metabólicas (diabetes mellitus y enfermedad hepática) y patologías neurodegenerativas aparecen a edades más tempranas que la población no infectada. Los mecanismos responsables de este fenómeno aún no se conocen, si…
Cationic solid lipid nanoparticles complexed with genetic material for liver tumor treatment
2015
Concept Gene therapy is a growing field of medicine with great potential for the treatment of several diseases and it is based on the delivery of nucleic acids (DNA, RNA, etc.,) to specific cells. To achieve their therapeutic effects, the nucleic acids need to cross several biological barriers and be protected from the degradation by nucleases, present in biological fluids and intracellular compartments, to successfully gain access to their intracellular targets. To overcome these hurdles, it is necessary to deliver the genetic material with biocompatible carriers able to facilitate its translocation across the cell membranes and protect it from being degraded while circulating in the blood…

3-NPA induziert Ischämietoleranz der Rattenleber nach warmer Ischämie
2005
Until now little is known about the potential of 3-nitroproprionic acid (3-NPA) to reduce ischemia/ reperfusion injury (IRI) of the rat liver in vivo.
