Close-up of a human liver lobule highlighting GLUL (glutamine synthetase) + liver cells surrounding the central vein (grey), with intensity-based pseudocoloring of CD32b expression showing the highest ...

More than 100 million people in the United States suffer from metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), characterized by a buildup of fat in the liver. This condition can lead ...

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 ...

Dr. Vadim Jucaud's lab at the Terasaki Institute has developed a vascularized liver tissueoid-on-a-chip (LToC) platform that recapitulates key structural, functional, and immunological features of ...

Researchers from the Roger Williams Institute of Liver Studies at King's College London developed two 3D models from human tissue to understand the effects that a drug—a cyclophilin inhibitor—has on ...

Two models more accurately replicate the physiology of the liver, offering a new way to test treatments for fat buildup. More than 100 million people in the United States suffer from metabolic ...

Never-before-seen 3D reconstructions of human liver tissue have been created at a cellular level. The details obtained by a team of UW Medicine and University of Washington engineers and physicians ...
