It is shown that vitamin D receptor (VDR) signaling in macrophages is essential for limiting fibrosis, acting through a previously unrecognized metabolic-epigenetic circuit and identified macrophage VDR as a promising therapeutic target for fibrotic liver diseases.
BACKGROUND
Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are major contributors to the immunosuppressive microenvironment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Nuclear protein 1 (NUPR1) is a stress-responsive regulator implicated in tumor progression; however, whether it functionally controls ferroptosis-associated stress adaptatio...

Parenteral nutrition-associated cholestasis (PNAC) arises from suppressed FXR signaling and macrophage activation driven by intestinal LPS and PN-derived phytosterols. We investigated whether tissue hypoxia and HIF1α signaling play a role in FXR-mediated protection in PNAC. PNAC mouse intrahepatic mononuclear cells (IH...

ABRL8301 acts as a pharmacologic inducer of ASS1 and arginine biosynthesis, inhibiting EMT and fibrotic progression while enhancing anticancer therapy and support ABRL8301 as a promising antifibrotic and tumor-sensitizing agent in hepatic fibrosis.
