Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited data are available on the outcome of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in patients with solid organ transplantation (SOT). We describe the natural history of pre-existing IBD and de novo IBD after SOT. METHODS This was a retrospective, multicenter study that included patients with pre-existing IBD at the time of SOT and patients with de novo IBD after SOT. The primary outcome was IBD progression, defined by escalation of medical treatment, surgical therapy, or hospitalization due to refractory IBD. Risk factors were identified using multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis. RESULTS A total of 177 patients (106 pre-existing IBD and 71 de novo IBD) were included. Most patients with pre-existing IBD (92.5%) were in remission before SOT. During follow-up, 32% of patients with pre-existing IBD had disease progression, with a median time between SOT and IBD progression of 2.2 (interquartile range, 1.3-4.6) years. In the de novo cohort, 55% of patients had disease progression with a median time to flare of 1.9 (interquartile range, 0.8-3.9) years after diagnosis. In the pre-existing IBD cohort, active IBD at the time of SOT (hazard ratio, 1.80; 95% confidence interval, 1.14-2.84; P = .012) and the presence of extraintestinal manifestations (hazard ratio, 3.10; 95% confidence interval, 1.47-6.54; P = .003) were predictive factors for IBD progression. CONCLUSIONS One-third of patients with pre-existing IBD and about half of patients with de novo IBD have disease progression after SOT. Active IBD at the time of SOT and the presence of extraintestinal manifestations were identified as risk factors for IBD progression.

Abstract
Dear Editor: Mesalamine is a medication used widely in the treatment of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Although mesalamine is considered safe, hepatotoxicity has been reported with an incidence of 0-4%. We present the clinical picture of a patient with hepatotoxicity due to mesalamine. A 79-year-old woman in the context of chronic diarrhea, a left-sided ulcerative colitis diagnosis was made, and treatment was initiated with oral mesalamine 4 g per day, and mesalamine suppositories. Before starting treatment, she had normal liver test results. After three months, she presented with headache, fatigue, and intermittent low fever. Her laboratory tests showed a liver profile with a cholestatic pattern, and elevation of inflammatory parameters. Mesalamine was suspended, and an extensive study was performed. Cholangioresonance reported intra and extrahepatic bile duct dilation without obstruction, and thickening of the intrahepatic bile duct. She progressed with worsening of the liver profile without signs of liver failure. A liver biopsy was performed, which showed chronic non-suppurative cholangitis with granulomas and focal concentric fibrosis related to medium-caliber bile ducts, and IgG4 stain was negative.

Abstract
Drug-induced toxic hepatopathies and drug-induced liver injury, DILI, are characterized by a variety of clinical manifestations and therefore represent a significant diagnostic challenge. This article shows how DILI is diagnosed and what therapy options exist. Current special cases of DILI genesis are also discussed (DOACs, IBD drugs, tyrosine kinase inhibitors). These newer substances and corresponding hepatotoxic effects are not yet fully understood. The internationally recognized and online available RUCAM score (Roussel Uclaf Causality Assessment Method) helps to assess the probability of drug-related toxic liver damage.

Abstract
Novel biological agents including cytokines and recombinant fusion proteins are increasingly prescribed for cancer, rheumatologic, autoimmune, and inflammatory diseases, and are currently being evaluated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). They are classified by their mechanism of action and include tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) antagonists, T cell mediated antitumor inhibitors, interleukin receptor antagonists, and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Some ICIs cause frequent hepatotoxicity with a variable clinical, biochemical, and serological presentation, especially in patients receiving another immunomodulatory agent. Half of the cases of liver damage induced by biological agents spontaneously regress after drug withdrawal, but the others require steroid therapy. Unfortunately, there are no widely accepted recommendation for the use of corticosteroids in these patients, even though international cancer societies have their own guidelines. Differentiating drug-induced autoimmune hepatitis (DIAIH) from classic AIH is challenging for pathologists, but liver biopsy is valuable, particularly in cases with unclear clinical presentation. Interesting, novel histological patterns have been described in liver damage induced by these agents (i.e., endothelitis, ring granuloma and secundary sclerosing cholangitis associated with lymphocytic infiltration of cytotoxic CD8+T cells). Here, we describe the clinical and biochemical characteristics of patients with hepatotoxicity induced by TNF-α antagonists and ICIs. Controversial issues involved in the administration of corticosteroid therapy, and hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation induced by immunosuppressive therapy are also discussed.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are associated with various hepatobiliary disorders. They can occur at any moment in the course of the disease or associated with the treatment. The prevalence of liver dysfunction can reach up to 50% in different studies. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is considered the most common hepatobiliary complication in IBD, while primary sclerosing cholangitis is the most specific. Management of hepatic manifestations in IBD involves a multidisciplinary approach that includes a high index of suspicion and joint management with hepatologists. The medical confrontation with abnormal liver tests must include an exhaustive study to determine if these patterns can be related to IBD, associated diseases or to the therapies used.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Liver test abnormalities in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are usually insidious in onset. By the time that symptoms referable to liver disease have appeared, the liver injury may be well advanced. It is, therefore, important that children with an incidental finding of abnormal liver tests are investigated in an appropriate and timely manner. RECENT FINDINGS The most prevalent cause of liver test elevations in paediatric IBD is immune-related liver disease, including primary sclerosing cholangitis, autoimmune sclerosing cholangitis, and autoimmune hepatitis. Although less common, drugs used in the treatment of IBD can also cause liver injury. The diagnosis of drug-induced liver injury relies largely on excluding other causes of liver injury, such as viral hepatitis, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and biliary and vascular complications. SUMMARY This review highlights an avenue to a step-wise approach for investigating children with IBD and silent liver test elevations. Central to the timing of diagnostic actions is grading the severity of liver test elevations.

Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) remains an important, yet challenging diagnosis for physicians. Each year, additional drugs are implicated in DILI and this year was no different, with more than 1400 articles published on the subject. This review examines some of the most significant highlights and controversies in DILI-related research over the past year and their implications for clinical practice. Several new drugs were approved by the US Food and Drug Administration including a number of drugs implicated in causing DILI, particularly among the chemotherapeutic classes. The COVID-19 pandemic was also a major focus of attention in 2020 and we discuss some of the notable aspects of COVID-19-related liver injury and its implications for diagnosing DILI. Updates in diagnostic and causality assessments related to DILI such as the Roussel Uclaf Causality Assessment Method are included, mindful that there is still no single biomarker or diagnostic tool to unequivocally diagnose DILI. Glutamate dehydrogenase received renewed attention as being more specific than alanine aminotransferase. There were a few new reports of previously unrecognized hepatotoxins, including immune modulators and novel gene therapy drugs that we highlight. Updates and new developments of previously described hepatotoxins, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors and anti-tuberculosis drugs are reviewed. Finally, novel technologies such as organoid culture systems to better predict DILI preclinically may be coming of age and determinants of hepatocyte loss, such as calculating PALT are poised to improve our current means of estimating DILI severity and the risk of acute liver failure.

Abstract
Bile acids has gradually become a new focus in various diseases, and ASBT as a transporter responsible for the reabsorption of ileal bile acids, is a key hinge associated to the bile acids-cholesterol balance and bile acids of enterohepatic circulation. The cumulative studies have also shown that ASBT is a promising target for treatment of liver, gallbladder, intestinal and metabolic diseases. This article briefly reviewed the process of bile acids enterohepatic circulation, as well as the regulations of ASBT expression, covering transcription factors, nuclear receptors and gut microbiota. In addition, the relationship between ASBT and various diseases were discussed in this paper. According to the structural classification of ASBT inhibitors, the research status of ASBT inhibitors and potential ASBT inhibitors of traditional Chinese medicine (such resveratrol, jatrorrhizine in Coptis chinensis) were summarized. This review provides a basis for the development of ASBT inhibitors and the treatment strategy of related diseases.
