Clin Chim Acta . 2009 Sep; 409(1-2):123-6. PMID: 19755118
Background: We investigated the xylosyltransferase (XT) activity in the serum of liver fibrotic patients with hepatitis C virus induced liver fibrosis at different stages as determined according to the scoring...

Gressner O, Beer N, Jodlowski A, Gressner A
Clin Chim Acta . 2009 Sep; 409(1-2):90-5. PMID: 19748500
Introduction: Non-invasive, i.e. serum-based assessment of liver fibrosis is still an important diagnostic challenge although multiple single and multiparametric panels of biomarkers have been suggested. Aim: Two approaches were followed...

Front Biosci (Landmark Ed) . 2009 Jun; 14(13):4992-5012. PMID: 19482601
Fibrosis is a scarring process that is a common feature of chronic organ injury. It is characterized by elevated activity of transforming growth factor-beta resulting in increased and altered deposition...

Hepatology . 2009 Mar; 49(6):2021-30. PMID: 19309720
Unlabelled: In vivo knockdown of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF/CCN2) was recently shown to attenuate the formation of experimental liver fibrosis. The secreted, cysteine-rich growth factor is proposed to adversely...

Gressner O, Lahme B, Siluschek M, Gressner A
Liver Int . 2009 Mar; 29(6):886-97. PMID: 19291178
Background: Recently, we identified hepatocytes as the major cellular source of profibrogenic connective tissue growth factor (CTGF/CCN2) in the liver. Based on reports of a hepatoprotective effect of coffee consumption,...
