Ghent, 24 January 2025 – Our livers contain many different types of immune cells. New research by the team of Prof. Charlotte Scott (VIB-UGent Center for Inflammation Research) and colleagues now ...

Many of the body's processes slow down or falter as we get older, including tissue regeneration. In a new study, researchers ...

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 ...

Scientists have discovered that blocking a key cellular enzyme thought to protect against fatty liver disease may instead ...

A novel 3D cell culture method has been developed that encourages liver progenitor cells to self-organize and form blood vessel networks for the first time. The development of accurate liver organoids ...

The aging liver undergoes dramatic changes in its functional organization and other key attributes, which may underpin its increasing susceptibility to disease, according to a study led by ...

This article is based on a poster originally authored by N. Lewis, D. Cole, A. Ward, J. Trigg and N. Bevan. Researchers are increasingly using 3D models, such as organoids, to generate ...

Scientists identify measurable cellular changes that flag higher cancer risk more than a decade before tumors appear. In A Nutshell Liver cells under chronic dietary stress essentially “forget” their ...

Liver disease is a major global health problem, causing over two million deaths worldwide each year. While animal models have helped to understand liver biology, they often fail to accurately ...
