Our work showed novel aspects of human liver ECs at the single-cell level thereby supporting endothelial involvement in CFLD, and reinforcing the hypothesis that ECs could be a driver of PSVD. Therefore, considering the vascular compartment in CF and CFLD may help developing new therapeutic approaches for these diseases.
