https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2104-8076The clinical department of Prof. Dr. med Daniel Seehofer performs more than 200 surgical interventions on the liver annually. Therefore, the group has access to a broad variety of liver tissues as well as corresponding patient, clinical laboratory and characterization data. I lead the experimental work group which has a longstandind expertise in the isolation, characterization and application of primary human liver and hepatoma cells. These cells as well as data generated from established liver ...

LiSyM-Krebs ist ein nationales Forschungsnetz zur Früherkennung und Prävention von Leberkrebs, das unter Verwendung des systemmedizinischen Forschungsansatzes die komplexen, dynamischen Prozesse der Krankheitsprogression analysiert, um ausgehend von den Erkenntnissen aus dem Forschungsnetz LiSyM die Entstehung von Leberkrebs besser zu verstehen, vorherzusagen und im besten Fall sogar zu verhindern. LiSyM-Krebs setzt die erfolgreichen Forschungsaktivitäten der BMBF-Vorgängerprogramme ...

Dr. Madlen Matz-Soja (University of Leipzig) investigates the importance of a control mechanism - the hedgehog signaling pathway - for fatty liver disease. She has shown that the signaling pathway directs how liver cells in NAFLD accumulate fat. Hedgehog also affects sex hormones in the liver. Therefore, Matz-Soya hopes to clarify why women and men suffer from cirrhosis and liver cancer with varying degrees of frequency.

SMART-NAFLD : A Systems Medicine Approach to Early Detection and Prevention of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
The massive increase in obesity is leading to an alarming rise in non-alcoholic liver disease (NAFLD). This development will lead to a dramatic increase in liver diseases such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A particular challenge is that NAFLD-associated HCCs, for reasons still unknown, not only occur in association with advanced liver fibrosis/cirrhosis, ...
