Yuri L. Boteon, Joseph Attard, Amanda P. C. S. Boteon, Lorraine Wallace, Gary Reynolds, Stefan Hubscher, Darius F. Mirza, Hynek Mergental, Ricky H. Bhogal, Simon C. Afford – 28 February 2019 – Strategies to increase the use of steatotic donor livers are required to tackle the mortality on the transplant waiting list. We aimed to test the efficacy of pharmacological enhancement of the lipid metabolism of human livers during ex situ normothermic machine perfusion to promote defatting and improve the functional recovery of the organs.

Oh, Grace Lin, Nianfu Song, Carl Mottram, Margaret F. Doyle, David E. Kaplan, Samir Gupta, Michael B. Fallon – 28 February 2019 – The tyrosine kinase inhibitor sorafenib improves hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) in an experimental model. However, the efficacy and adverse effect profile in patients with HPS are unknown.

Sungjun Park, Jiho Park, Eunjeong Kim, Yoontae Lee – 27 February 2019 – Liver‐resident memory T (liver TRM) cells exert protective immune responses following liver infection by malaria parasites. However, how these TRM cells are developed and what the consequence is if they are not properly maintained remain poorly understood. Here, we show that the transcriptional repressor, Capicua (CIC), controls liver CD8+ TRM cell development to maintain normal liver function.

Qinchuan Wu, Wuhua Zhou, Shengyong Yin, Yuan Zhou, Tianchi Chen, Junjie Qian, Rong Su, Liangjie Hong, Haohao Lu, Feng Zhang, Haiyang Xie, Lin Zhou, Shusen Zheng – 27 February 2019 – Tumor‐associated macrophages (TAMs) are recognized as antitumor suppressors, but how TAMs behave in the hypoxic environment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. Here, we demonstrated that hypoxia inducible factor 1α induced increased expression of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells‐1 (TREM‐1) in TAMs, resulting in immunosuppression.
