# Cirrhosis Metabolism

Reproducibility of all analyses is ensured by the R package [workflowr](https://github.com/workflowr/workflowr) by deploying all analysis
scripts at a dedicated [website](https://christianholland.github.io/cirrhosis-metabolism).

## About
In this project the expression of genes involved in the metabolism of
xenobiotic substances is analyzed in a mouse model that develops chronic liver
disease induced by administration of CCl~4~ for 2, 6 and 12 months. In addition
their expression in mouse is compared against the expression in patients that
suffer from chronic liver disease utilizing a set of publicly available patient
cohorts (see Table 1 in [this publication](https://aasldpubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/hep4.1797#hep41797-tbl-0001)
for more details)

The focus is on the following gene families:

* Phase I Metabolism
+ Cytochrome p450 dependent monooxygenase (CYP)
+ Flavin dependent monooxygenases (FMO)
+ Monoamine oxidase (MAO)
+ Cyclooxgenase (COX)
+ Dihydrodioldehydrogenase (DH)
+ DT-Diaphorase (NQOR)
+ Alcohol- and Aldehyddehydrogenase (ADH/ALDH)
+ Epoxidhydrolase (EPH)
* Phase II Metabolism
+ Glutathiontransferase (GST)
+ UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT)
+ Sulfotransferase (SULT)
+ Acetyltransferase (NAT)
+ Methyltransferase (MT)
* Carrier
+ Blood side
+ Canalicular side
