Liver disease incidence is on the rise worldwide, posing an increasing risk of morbidity. Despite intensified global public health interventions, liver diseases continue to represent a significant portion of the global disease burden, underscoring the complexity and multidimensionality of liver disease epid...
High bilirubin in the bile:Bilirubin is a chemical that's produced when the body breaks down red blood cells. Certain conditions of the liver like livercirrhosis, liver infections or blood disorderscause increased production of bilirubin. The excess bilirubin can lead to gallstone formation. Decrease...
Increasing evidence suggests that AMNPs are widely present in many regions of the world and play an important role in the occurrence of diseases, which has raised concerns about their impacts on human health [8]. The respiratory system, as the main structure through which the human body direct...
TMEM30A deficiency primarily resulted in a dramatic increase in direct bilirubin (DBIL) levels, whereas indirect bilirubin (IBIL) levels were slightly increased (Figure 1C). Serum γ-glutamyl transferase levels were comparable between the two groups (Figure 1D). Next, TBA, TBIL, and DBIL levels...
In vivo PPL caused an increase in albumin, TAC-CUPRAC, TAC-FRAP, uric acid (p < 0.0001), TOC (p = 0.0012) and total bilirubin (p = 0.0245); reduction of TAC-ABTS (p = 0.0008); and did not alter the lipid peroxidation (p = 0.8983). In vitro, levels of albumin increased at ...
Abnormal yellowish discoloration of skin and eyes is called jaundice. This yellow color is caused by a substance called bilirubin, which is a metabolic end-product of heme (from hemoglobin). There are two types of bilirubin - unconjugated (indirect) and conjugated(direct). Both types can cause...

The source of these chemicals can be external, such as medications or alcohol, or internal, such as ammonia or bilirubin. Typically, these harmful chemicals are broken down into smaller chemicals or attached to other chemicals that then are eliminated from the body in the urine or stool. The ...
Although the typical blood parameters for bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) indicating the icteric reaction were increased between eight and fifteen times in all mice, comparative Sirius Red staining and immunohistochemistry of respective liver sections revealed ...
Most people with pancreatic cancer first go to their primary-care doctor complaining of nonspecific symptoms (see symptoms section above). Some warning signs include pain, gastrointestinal symptoms, weight loss,fatigue, and increased abdominal fluid. These complaints trigger an evaluation often including ...
