Hepatomegaly

01/01/2010 - "Comparison of these results with data from a previous gradient field study on biological variables in winter flounder, captured at 2, 5, 7, and 10 km down-current from the outfall, revealed an enlarged liver that was associated with elevated levels of detoxification of hepatic enzymes and prevalence of toxicopathic lesions in both the liver and the spleen; these were significantly greater in samples taken nearest to the outfall from the mill than at more distant sites. "
06/01/1994 - "During remission, they suddenly developed manifestations such as neurologic disturbances, hepatomegaly, increased activity of liver enzymes, and microvesicular steatosis. "
07/01/2006 - "This study was therefore designed to look at the association between clinical severity and hepatic enzymes in SCA subjects with persistent hepatomegaly (that is, lasting more than six months) in order to determine a possible role for hepatic enzymes as a biochemical index of severity. "
12/01/2015 - "Prolonged circadian disruption (12 weeks) resulted in hepatic maladaptation, manifested by a mild but significant (p < 0.05) hepatomegaly, accompanied by disturbed hepatic lipid metabolism and liver injury (indicated by increased circulating hepatic enzymes). "
05/01/2015 - "Twenty-one patients with MAS-associated AOSD underwent BM biopsy and among them, 9 patients with hepatomegaly and elevated liver enzymes underwent liver biopsy. "

11/01/2012 - "Out of the 78 children, 34 had one or more abnormality in the form of clinical hepatomegaly, raised alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or echogenic liver parenchyma by ultrasound. "
07/01/2005 - "Hepatomegaly, the only clinical sign reported, was found in 10% of children and was significantly associated with a high proportion of abnormal alanine transaminase (ALT) levels (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 4.17; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.67-10.42; P = .002). "
10/01/2006 - "Nineteen, 5 and 3 were, respectively, graded as hepatic encephalopathy grade 1, 2 and 3. All six patients in grade 2 and 3 had hepatomegaly compared to 78% in the grade 1. Four had jaundice and all were in grade 2 or 3. Mean alanine aminotransferase was 2781 U/L None of the randomly selected cases (6) had serological evidence of Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B or Dengue. "

01/01/1992 - "Two children had transiently aberrant metabolite profiles, indicating altered beta-oxidation, (levels of 2-en-VPA, 2,3'-dien-VPA, and 3-en-VPA were markedly increased) in connection with hepatomegaly and increased liver enzyme activities at a time when both had febrile infections and were receiving dexamethasone comedication. "

06/16/2009 - "More importantly, hepatomegaly is independent of PPARalpha, the thymic changes are partially dependent on this receptor, and splenic responses are largely eliminated in its absence. "
07/01/2009 - "Administration of PFBA can cause peroxisome proliferation, induction of peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation and hepatomegaly, suggesting that PFBA activates the nuclear receptor, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-alpha). "
01/01/2007 - "Here, we show that targeted deletion of coactivator PRIP gene in liver (PRIP(LIV-/-)) does not affect the induction of PPARalpha-regulated pleiotropic responses, including hepatomegaly, hepatic peroxisome proliferation, and induction of mRNAs of genes involved in fatty acid oxidation system, indicating that PRIP is not essential for PPARalpha-mediated transcriptional activity. "
01/01/2006 - "WY-fed WT mice exhibited hepatomegaly, an effect not found in WY-fed PPARalpha-null mice, and WY did not change liver sphingoid base concentrations in either strain. "
05/18/2004 - "In light of the fact that all six compounds stimulated similar or identical changes in the expression of this set of 1288 genes, these results indicate that hepatomegaly is due to PPARalpha activation, although signaling through other receptors (e.g. "

05/15/1997 - "Yet, hepatomegaly, a characteristic effect of TCDD, took place in all three strains of mice. "
05/01/1996 - "In both species, thymic antrophy, indicating immune dysfunction, and hepatomegaly were observed as consequences of TCDD exposure. "
04/01/1993 - "In contrast, this analysis indicated that the non-TCDD component of the OPL antagonized the ability of the TCDD component to induce hepatic AHH activity whereas OPL hepatomegaly was caused primarily by the non-TCDD component of the OPL. "
02/01/1989 - "However, TCDD produced hepatomegaly, a decrease in serum antibody, and a decrease in PFC/spleen in both BALB/cByJ and DBA/2J mice to 3 and 15%, respectively, at 16 micrograms/kg. Thus, the TCDD dose required to cause a 50% suppression (ED50) of PFC/spleen for the BALB/cByJ and DBA/2J strains was 1.84 and 3.89 micrograms/kg, respectively. "
02/01/1989 - "The results suggest that the immunosuppression caused by OPL in BALB/cByJ mice was primarily due to TCDD, that the non-TCDD components of OPL diminished the TCDD immunotoxicity in the DBA/2J strain, and that the thymic atrophy and hepatomegaly were caused primarily by the non-TCDD components of the OPL."

08/01/2000 - "Resolution of raised jugular venous pressure (p = 0.017), hepatomegaly (p = 0.007), and ascites (p = 0.015), and improvement in physical activity (p = 0.02), were significantly more rapid in the prednisolone treated patients. "

10/14/2009 - "Dietary KO supplementation caused a significant reduction in liver wt (i.e., hepatomegaly) and total liver fat (i.e., hepatic steatosis), due to a dose-dependent reduction in hepatic triglyceride (mean +/- SEM: 35 +/- 6, 47 +/- 4, and 51 +/- 5% for HFKO1.25, -2.5, and -5.0 vs HF, respectively, P < 0.001) and cholesterol (55 +/- 5, 66 +/- 3, and 71 +/- 3%, P < 0.001). "

03/01/2006 - "Treatment reduction should be considered for subsets of infants with non-MYCN-amplified widespread NB: stage 4 without bone or extensive BM involvement may not require cytotoxic therapy, stage 4S with symptomatic hepatomegaly may not require multiple cycles of chemotherapy, and classic stage 4 may do well with limited chemotherapy. "
