Background/Aims: Hepatic steatosis is a major risk factor for liver surgery and transplantation. The increased susceptibility of fatty livers to ischemic injury is associated with a necrotic form of cell death as opposed to apoptosis in lean animals, and is possibly related to low contents of ATP. Ischemic preconditioning, a brief period of ischemia prior to a prolonged period, protects the lean liver...
Background/Aims: Host factors such as increased body mass index (BMI) and genotype-specific viral factors contribute to the development of steatosis in patients with chronic hepatitis C (HCV). We hypothesized that host metabolic factors associated with increased BMI may play a role in disease progression.Methods: Fasting serum was collected from 160 patients with chronic HCV at the time of liver biopsy...
