  2. Cirrhosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cirrhosis

    Cirrhosis, also known as liver cirrhosis or hepatic cirrhosis, chronic liver failure or chronic hepatic failure and end-stage liver disease, is an acute condition of the liver in which the normal functioning tissue, or parenchyma, is replaced with scar tissue and regenerative nodules as a result of chronic liver disease.

  3. Cell damage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_damage

    Physical agents such as heat or radiation can damage a cell by literally cooking or coagulating their contents. Impaired nutrient supply, such as lack of oxygen or glucose, or impaired production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) may deprive the cell of essential materials needed to survive.

  4. Metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_dysfunction...

    Weight loss is the most effective treatment for MASLD and MASH. A loss of 5% to 10% body weight is recommended and has shown regression of liver damage, with 10% to 40% weight loss completely reversing MASH without cirrhosis. A weight loss of greater than 10% was associated with resolution of MASH in 90% of people in a biopsy based study.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepatocyte

    The typical hepatocyte is cubical with sides of 20-30 μm, (in comparison, a human hair has a diameter of 17 to 180 μm). [1] The typical volume of a hepatocyte is 3.4 x 10 −9 cm 3. [2] Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is abundant in hepatocytes, in contrast to most other cell types. [3]

  6. Acute liver failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_liver_failure

    The complications are hepatic encephalopathy and impaired protein synthesis (as measured by the levels of serum albumin and the prothrombin time in the blood). The 1993 classification defines hyperacute as within 1 week, acute as 8–28 days, and subacute as 4–12 weeks; [ 1 ] both the speed with which the disease develops and the underlying ...

  7. Liver disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liver_disease

    Oxidative DNA damage is mutagenic [27] and also causes epigenetic alterations at the sites of DNA repair. [28] Epigenetic alterations and mutations affect the cellular machinery that may cause the cell to replicate at a higher rate or result in the cell avoiding apoptosis , and thus contribute to liver disease. [ 29 ]

  8. TRPV1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRPV1

    The lack of the TRPV1 receptor gives a glimpse into the developing brain as heat can kill most organisms in large enough doses, so this removal process shows researchers how the inability to sense heat may be detrimental to the survivability of an organism and then translate this to human heat disorders.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcoholic_liver_disease

    Risk factors known as of 2010 are: Quantity of alcohol taken: Consumption of 60–80 g per day (14 g is considered one standard drink in the US, e.g. 1 + 1 ⁄ 2 US fl oz or 44 mL hard liquor, 5 US fl oz or 150 mL wine, 12 US fl oz or 350 mL beer; drinking a six-pack of 5% ABV beer daily would be 84 g and just over the upper limit) for 20 years or more in men, or 20 g/day for women ...
