Liver sinusoidal endothelial cell (LSEC) capillarization in NASH

Prof. Pierre-E.Rautou (France) discusses the effects of Liver Sinusoidal endothelial cell (LSEC) capillarization in patients with NASH. He also reviews the occurrences of LSEC capillarization at the early stages of NASH and its contribution to NASH progression by favoring inflammation and liver fibrosis. For the clinicians, he demonstrates a 24 week study of patients with NASH, exposed placebo and lanifibranor treatments strategies to determine LSEC changes.

Prof. Pierre-Emmanuel Rautou (MD, PhD) is a clinical specialist in Hepatology with a PhD in vascular biology (2011). He is Professor of Hepatology at the University of Paris and Hôpital Beaujon (Clichy, France) since 2016. He is the head of the splanchnic hemodynamic laboratory at Beaujon Hospital (Clichy, France) since 2012. He is also leading an Inserm team dedicated to the study of the role of vessels in liver diseases, at the INSERM Unit 1149 (Paris Research Center on Inflammation). His research is focused on the role of vessels in liver diseases. Specifically, he is interested in primary vascular liver diseases (Budd-Chiari syndrome, portal vein thrombosis and intrahepatic non cirrhotic portal hypertension), as well as in vascular involvement in common liver diseases development and complications.
