Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aimed to profile the peripheral blood immune cells of patients with HBV related acute-on-chronic liver failure using single-cell RNA sequencing to reveal the immunopathological mechanisms of HBV related acute-on-chronic liver failure.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a complex clinical syndrome characterized by acute deterioration of liver function in patients with chronic liver disease, exhibiting liver and extrahepatic organ failure and a high short-term mortality. Immune imbalance plays an important role in the progression of HBV-related ACLF. Further investigation of the immune cell characteristics of HBV-related ACLF is helpful to understand its pathogenesis, and may provide reference for the effective therapeutic agent. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is the quantitative analysis of transcription at the single-cell level, which could provide systematic analyses of transcriptomic profiles, infer cell-cell interactions. This study will combine single cell transcriptomics and molecular biological experiment to elucidate the immunopathological cell states associated with HBV-related chronic liver disease vs. ACLF.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

Acute liver failure is a well-defned medical emergency which is defned as a severe liver injury, leading to coagulation abnormality usually with an INR ≥ 1.5, and any degree of mental alteration (encephalopathy) in a patient without pre-existing liver disease and with an illness of up to 4 weeks duration

Exclusion Criteria

* Associated with other types of hepatitis virus infection or HIV infection, alcoholic liver disease, autoimmune liver disease, drug-induced liver injury; ② Suffering from primary liver cancer or severe heart, digestive, lung, kidney, neurological and psychiatric diseases; ③ Patients with incomplete data and patients unable to participate in the experiment.
