About this Research Topic
The present Research Topic aims to report the most recent molecular and cellular mechanisms of chronic liver diseases. The topic will be open to review and research articles that focus on, but not limited to, the following themes:
1. Novel mechanisms of chronic liver diseases, such as viral hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MALFD) & metabolic associated steatohepatitis (NASH), Liver fibrosis/cirrhosis, autoimmune liver disease, drug-induced liver injury (DILI), hepatocellular carcinoma, and cholangiocarcinoma, etc.
2. New technology and new tools in the study of chronic liver diseases
3. Novel therapeutic targets for chronic liver diseases
4. Epigenetics of chronic liver diseases
5. Inflammation regulation in chronic liver diseases
6. The role of liver cells in the development of chronic liver diseases
Keywords: Chronic liver diseases, liver fibrosis, viral hepatitis, metabolic associated fatty liver disease, autoimmune liver disease, liver cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma
