The role of the gut microbiome in the development of hepatobiliary cancers

Neil Daniel, Flavia Genua, Mazda Jenab, Ana-Lucia Mayen, Anastasia Chrysovalantou Chatziioannou, Pekka Keski-Rahkonen, David J. Hughes

Summary: Hepatobiliary cancers, such as hepatocellular carcinoma and cancers of the biliary tract, are associated with unhealthy western-type dietary and lifestyle patterns, obesity, and dysbiosis in the gut microbiome. The gut microbiome interacts bidirectionally with the liver through the gut-liver axis. Factors such as dysbiosis, reduced gut barrier function, exposure to inflammatory compounds, and metabolic dysfunction contribute to the development of hepatobiliary cancer. Dietary and lifestyle factors mediated by the gut microbiome also impact liver pathologies. Emerging gut microbiome editing techniques are being investigated for hepatobiliary diseases.

Hepatic Arterial Infusion of Chemotherapy for Advanced Hepatobiliary Cancers: State of the Art

Carmelo Laface, Mariarita Laforgia, Pasquale Molinari, Ippazio Ugenti, Cosmo Damiano Gadaleta, Camillo Porta, Girolamo Ranieri

Summary: Liver functional failure contributes significantly to cancer-related mortality. Systemic chemotherapy offers modest benefits for disease control and survival, but with notable adverse effects. Liver malignancies are mostly perfused by the hepatic artery, leading to the strategy of hepatic arterial infusion of chemotherapy. Current studies show favorable safety and efficacy outcomes for this approach in advanced hepatobiliary cancers, warranting further large-scale studies for confirmation.

Metabolic regulation of cholestatic liver injury by D-2-hydroxyglutarate with the modulation of hepatic microenvironment and the mammalian target of rapamycin signaling

Xinbei Tian, Ying Wang, Ying Lu, Bo Wu, Shanshan Chen, Jun Du, Wei Cai, Yongtao Xiao

Summary: Biliary atresia (BA) is a liver disease in neonates characterized by obstructed bile ducts. The lack of early diagnostic markers and understanding of its pathogenesis has led to high mortality rates. This study found that D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2-HG) levels were elevated in the plasma and liver of BA patients and correlated with liver injuries. D-2-HG inhibited liver organoid growth and mitochondrial respiration, while increasing aerobic glycolysis. These findings suggest that D-2-HG may serve as a diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target for BA.
