Summary: Background: SerpinB3 is a cysteine protease inhibitor involved in liver disease progression due to its proinflammatory and profibrogenic properties. The polymorphic variant SerpinB3‐PD (SB3‐PD), presents a substitution in its reactive centre loop, determining the gain of function. Aims: To disclose the clinical characteristics of a cohort of patients with cirrhosis in relation to the presence of SB3‐PD and to assess the effect of this genetic variant on fibrogenic and inflammatory cytokines in vitro. Methods: We assessed SB3 polymorphism in 90 patients with cirrhosis, prospectively followed up in our referral centre. We used HepG2 and HuH‐7 cells transfected to overexpress either wild‐type SB3 (SB3‐WT) or SB3‐PD to assess their endogenous effect, while LX2 and THP‐1 cells were treated with exogenous SB3‐WT or SB3‐PD proteins. Results: Patients carrying SB3‐PD had more severe portal hypertension and higher MELD scores, than patients carrying SB3‐WT. In multivariate analysis, SB3‐PD was an independent predictor of cirrhosis complications. Patients with SB3‐PD polymorphism presented with more severe liver fibrosis and inflammatory features. Hepatoma cells overexpressing SB3‐PD showed higher TGF‐β1 expression than controls. The addition of recombinant SB3‐PD induced an up‐regulation of TGF‐β1 in LX2 cells and a more prominent inflammatory profile in THP‐1 cells, compared to the effect of SB3‐WT protein. Conclusions: The polymorphic variant SB3‐PD is highly effective in determining activation of TGF‐β1 and inflammation in vitro. Patients with cirrhosis who carry SB3‐PD polymorphism may be more prone to develop severe liver disease progression. However, further validation studies are warranted to support the in vivo relevance of this polymorphism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Metabolic disorders are well-known risk factors for HCC. Conversely, their impact on the natural history of HCC is not established. This study aimed at evaluating the impact of metabolic disorders on clinical features, treatment and survival of HCC patients regardless of its aetiology. Methods: We analysed the ITA.LI.CA database regarding 839 HCC patients prospectively collected. The following metabolic features were analysed: BMI, diabetes, arterial hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia and hypertriglyceridaemia. According to these features, patients were divided into 3 groups: 0-1, 2 and 3-5 metabolic features. Results: As compared with patients with 0-1 metabolic features, patients with 3-5 features showed lower percentage of HCC diagnosis on surveillance (P=.021), larger tumours (P=.038), better liver function (higher percentage of Child-Pugh class A [P=.007] and MELD
