This early-phase clinical trial will assess the use of ex vivo CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing on donor liver grafts to reduce immunogenicity before transplantation. Donor livers will have HLA-A and HLA-B genes knocked out, and HLA class II expression disabled (by targeting the CIITA transactivator gene), aiming to create a "hypoimmunogenic" …
Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy is seen as a blunted contractile responsiveness to stress, and/or altered diastolic relaxation with electrophysiological abnormalities, in absence of known cardiac disease. Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is associated with risk of hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) , septic shock. , heart failure in the perioperative period following liver transplantation, …
Autoimmune liver diseases (AILD), which include Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) and Autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH) are a common etiological factors for chronic liver disease among adolescents. In all these conditions, autoimmune lymphocyte responses are thought to orchestrate inflammatory injury against hepatocytes (primarily in AIH) or cholangiocytes (in PSC). In this proposal …
The main aim of the study is to discover the mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of NAFLD in obese youth.
The purpose of this research study is to test the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of the capsules that contain bacteria from healthy individuals when used to treat alcohol craving and drinking.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of NNC0581-0001 in participants with hepatic steatosis and suspected steatohepatitis (increased liver fat and suspected inflammation). NNC0581-0001 will be given in 2 different dose levels as injection under the skin (once per month for 3 months). Participants …
The goal of this clinical study is to learn whether the Olympus EU-ME3 endoscopic ultrasound shear wave quantification (EUS-SWQ) function can accurately diagnose and grade liver fibrosis in patients with chronic liver disease. It will also learn about the safety and measurement success rate of EUS-SWQ. The main questions it …
This research study is being conducted to find out more about advanced ultrasound techniques to non-invasively evaluate liver disease in children. The investigators are developing advanced techniques for analyzing ultrasound data and images of the liver, and they will compare it to other established methods used to evaluate the liver, …
To identify key characteristics of the tissue resident and peripherally circulating immune-phenotype in addition to blood markers, metabolic profile, faecal and oral microbiota in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Alzheimer's Disease and related dementias (ADRD) affect about 6 million people in the U.S. and are the fifth leading cause of death for adults over 65. Recent research is investigating how chronic liver diseases like Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD), which affects one-third of the U.S. population, might influence …
