Intake of coffee daily and regularly may have a profound and therapeutic effect in reduced risk and treatment of Hepatic
Cirrhosis
Coffee, second to green tea, is a popular and social beverage all over the world, particularly in the West, made from roasted bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.
Hepatic Cirrhosis is a condition characterized by the abnormal function of the liver due to the presence of live damage or scarring.
In the experiments in cellular and animal models provided biological plausibility, coffee consumption exhibited a liver protective effect in preventing Cirrhosis from developing through its antifibrotic activity.
According to the Arauz and colleagues study in the exam, one of the key questions regarding the anti-fibrotic role of coffee, coffee as a specifically primary antifibrotic agent is considered as a functional food in prevent and treatment of chronic liver disease.
Dr. Dranoff J in the analysis Coffee Consumption and Risk of Cirrhosis suggested that coffee consumption is inversely related to the progression of liver fibrosis to cirrhosis and even hepatocellular carcinoma.
Furthermore, in the study to evaluate the hepatoprotective properties of coffee and caffeine in a model of chronic bile duct ligation (BDL) in male Wistar rats with liver injury induced by 28-day BDL, assigned to the administered group of conventional coffee, decaffeinated coffee, or caffeine daily, researchers at the lead Autonomous University of Baja California, filed the following results
1. Intake of coffee showed significant effects in promoting the antioxidant status by restoring the redox equilibrium, preventing the elevation of liver enzymes as well as hepatic glycogen depletion.
2. Coffee and caffeine consumption prevented collagen increases
3. Coffee intake reduced protein expression in promoting hepatic infectious cell activation,
4. Coffee intake decreased expression levels of transforming growth factor-β, connective tissue growth factor, α-smooth muscle actin, and collagen in inducing further damage in a tested model of chronic bile duct ligation (BDL).
The result indicated that coffee intake have a strong efficacy in prevent liver cirrhosis development through antioxidant activity, hepaprotective effect, reduced profibrotic molecules, and proinflammation-involved expression of Cirrhosis.
More interestingly, in the comparison of the total of 195 patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD) consumed coffee on a daily basis and 184 patients did not. researchers at the joint study led by the University Hospital of Heidelberg found that coffee consumption, in fact, ameliorated the progression of liver cirrhosis and increased long-term survival after liver transplantation compared to nondrinker.
With all the information found, one may be considered coffee as a functional food in attenuated risk and treatment of liver cirrhosis through its liver protective effect via phytochemicals in demonstration of antioxidant expression.
