Recent Events in Alcoholic Liver Disease V. Effects of ethanol on liver regeneration

Diehl, Anna Mae·2005·American Journal of Physiology-Gastrointestinal and Liver Physiology

Abstract

Liver regeneration is necessary to recover from alcoholic liver injury. Herein, we review evidence that ethanol interferes with liver regeneration. Briefly, alcoholic fatty livers demonstrate increased rates of hepatocyte death. The latter provides a regenerative stimulus. However, unlike mature hepatocytes in healthy adult livers, most surviving mature hepatocytes in alcoholic fatty livers cannot replicate. Therefore, less mature cells (progenitors) must differentiate to replace dead hepatocytes. Little is known about the general mechanisms that modulate the differentiation of liver progenitors in adults. Delineation of these mechanisms and clarification of how ethanol influences them might suggest new therapies for alcoholic liver disease.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Chronic and excessive alcohol intake is known to cause liver injury from mild steatosis (AFLD) to more advanced liver disease such as ASH, fibrosis/cirrhosis, hepatic cancer, liver failure, and death.

    “Chronic and excessive alcohol intake is known to cause liver injury from mild steatosis (simple fat accumulation in so-called alcoholic fatty liver disease, AFLD) to more advanced liver disease such as inflammation (alcoholic steatohepatitis, ASH), fibrosis/cirrhosis, hepatic cancer, liver failure, and death203–213.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
