Chronic liver diseases (CLDs), which are typically characterized by fibrogenic progression towards liver cirrhosis and related complications eventually leading to organ failure and can also lead to the development of primary liver cancers, represent a major burden for human health on a worldwide basis. Although the present knowledge on the pathogenesis of CLDs progression and primary liver cancers development has remarkably increased in the last decades, critical molecular mediators remain incompletely understood, and approved antifibrotic therapies to efficiently counteract CLDs progression and liver cancer are lacking. In the present review, this study will specifically analyse the putative contribution of SERPINB3, a member of the superfamily of serine-protease inhibitors (SERPINs), which has been shown to exert significant pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrogenic roles in progressive CLDs as well as to be involved in the development of primary liver cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), cholangiocarcinoma, and hepatoblastoma.
