Article Abstract
(Radish) belongs to the Brassicaceae family and is a widely consumed root vegetable all around the world. The nutritional and medicinal values of radishes have been proven by several researches. Extracts prepared from the aerial and underground parts of radishes have been used in the treatment of stomach disorders, urinary infections, hepatic inflammation, cardiac disorders and ulcers in folk medicine since the ancient times. The pharmaceutical potential of radishes is attributed to the presence of its beneficial secondary metabolites, such as glucosinolates, polyphenols and isothiocyanates. The present review has focused on the impact of radish extract administration under pathological complications, such as cancer, diabetes, hepatic inflammation and oxidative stress. In addition, a comprehensive view of molecular mechanism behind the regulation of molecular drug targets associated with different types of cancers and diabetes by the bioactive compounds present in the radish extracts have been discussed in detail.

Background: The clinical course and outcomes of alcohol-associated hepatitis (AH) remain poorly understood. Major adverse liver outcomes (MALO) do not capture the added risk of return to drinking (RTD). We examined the natural history of AH and developed a composite endpoint using a contemporary observational cohort of AH.

Neutrophils play a complex role in the pathogenesis of chronic liver disease and have been linked to both liver damage and injury resolution. Recent reports propose that neutrophils drive liver injury and fibrosis through the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). This study tests the hypothesis that the enzyme peptidyl arginine deiminase-4 (PAD4) drives NET formation and liver fibrosis in experimental chronic liver injury.

Background And Aims: Inflammatory cell infiltration in the liver is a hallmark of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). However, the pathological events that trigger the infiltration of inflammatory cells to mediate MAFLD pathogenesis remains poorly understood. This study aims to investigate the function and mechanism of Hic-5 on hepatic inflammation of MAFLD.

This study explores how human antigen R (HuR) stabilizes fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19) mRNA, inhibiting Kupffer cell (KC) activation to reduce inflammation and fibrosis in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). An animal model of NAFLD was established in mice by administering a high-fat diet (HFD). In vitro study utilized a lipopolysaccharide-induced immortalized mouse KC model.
