Background/Aims Berberine ursodeoxycholate (HTD1801) has been shown to significantly reduce liver fat content (LFC) in an 18-week, placebo-controlled Phase 2 study in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The purpose of this assessment was to establish proof of concept in liver histologic improvement with HTD1801 treatment based on preclinical and clinical evidence.
Methods The efficacy of HTD1801 was evaluated in a preclinical MASH/dyslipidemia model (golden hamsters fed a high fat diet, eight/group) after six weeks of daily treatment. Additionally, in a secondary analysis of a Phase 2 clinical study, 100 patients with presumed MASH were evaluated by multiple noninvasive markers associated with MASH resolution and/or fibrosis improvement. These include magnetic resonance imaging proton density fat fraction (MRIPDFF; ≥30% LFC reduction), iron-corrected T1 (≥80 ms reduction), alanine aminotransferase (≥17 U/L reduction), weight loss (≥5% reduction), Fibrosis-4 index (shift to <1.3), and MASH resolution index (achieving ≥–0.67).
Results Preclinical findings in the MASH/dyslipidemia hamster model showed that HTD1801 significantly improved histologic fibrosis and the Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Activity Score to such a degree that improvements approximated the appearance of the normal controls. In the clinical study, 52% of HTD1801-treated patients achieved MRI response criteria compared to 24% of placebo (p<0.05). Dose-dependent improvements were observed across biomarkers, with more HTD1801-treated patients achieving response criteria associated with improvements in the histologic features of MASH.
Conclusions These findings suggest that HTD1801 has strong potential to produce histological improvements in patients with MASH.

Background/Aims The histological criteria in the 1999 and 2008 scoring systems proposed by the International Autoimmune Hepatitis Group (IAIHG) have their inherent limitations in diagnosing autoimmune hepatitis (AIH). In this study, we evaluated the histology components of four scoring systems (1. revised original scoring system [“1999 IAIHG”], 2. simplified scoring system [“2008 IAIHG”], 3. modified histologic criteria [“2017 UCSF”], and 4. a new histologic criteria proposed by the International AIH Pathology Group [“2022 IAHPG”]) in AIH patients.
Methods Medical records and liver biopsies were retrospectively reviewed for 68 patients from two independent medical institutions, diagnosed with AIH based on the 1999 IAIHG system between 2006 and 2016. The histological features were reviewed in detail, and the four histological scoring systems were compared.
Results Out of the 68 patients, 56 (82.4%) patients met the “probable” or “definite” AIH criteria of the 2008 IAIHG system, and the proportion of histologic score 2 (maximum) was 40/68 (58.8%). By applying the 2017 UCSF criteria, the number of histology score 2 increased to 60/68 (88.2%), and “probable” or “definite” AIH cases increased to 61/68 (89.7%). Finally, applying the 2022 IAHPG histology score resulted in the highest number of cases with histologic score 2 (64/68; 94.1%) and with a diagnosis of “probable” or “definite” AIH (62/68; 91.2%).
Conclusions The recently proposed UCSF/IAHPG histological criteria increased the histology score of AIH. Substituting the histology component of the 2008 IAIHG system with the 2022 IAHPG criteria increased the sensitivity for diagnosing AIH (≥“Probable AIH”) from 82.4% to 91.2%.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a spectrum of diseases characterized by fatty accumulation in hepatocytes, ranging from steatosis, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, to cirrhosis. While histopathological evaluation of liver biopsies plays a central role in the diagnosis of NAFLD, limitations such as the problem of interobserver variability still exist and active research is underway to improve the diagnostic utility of liver biopsies. In this article, we provide a comprehensive overview of the histopathological features of NAFLD, the current grading and staging systems, and discuss the present and future roles of liver biopsies in the diagnosis and prognostication of NAFLD.

Background/Aims The core needle biopsy (CNB), fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and touch imprint cytology (TIC) are commonly used tools for the diagnosis of hepatic malignancies. However, little is known about the benefits and criteria for selecting appropriate technique among them in clinical practice. We aimed to compare the sensitivity of ultrasound-guided CNB, FNAC, TIC as well as combinations for the diagnosis of hepatic malignancies, and to determine the factors associated with better sensitivity in each technique.
Methods From January 2018 to December 2019, a total of 634 consecutive patients who received ultrasound-guided liver biopsies at the National Taiwan University Hospital was collected, of whom 235 with confirmed malignant hepatic lesions receiving CNB, FNAC and TIC simultaneously were enrolled for analysis. The clinical and procedural data were compared.
Results The sensitivity of CNB, FNAC and TIC for the diagnosis of malignant hepatic lesions were 93.6%, 71.9%, and 85.1%, respectively. Add-on use of FNAC or TIC to CNB provided additional sensitivity of 2.1% and 0.4%, respectively. FNAC exhibited a significantly higher diagnostic rate in the metastatic cancers (P=0.011), hyperechoic lesions on ultrasound (P=0.028), and those with depth less than 4.5 cm from the site of needle insertion (P=0.036).
Conclusions The sensitivity of CNB is superior to that of FNAC and TIC for the diagnosis of hepatic malignancies. Nevertheless, for shallow (depth <4.5 cm) and hyperechoic lesions not typical for primary liver cancers, FNAC alone provides excellent sensitivity.
