Lymphocytes support oval cell-dependent liver regeneration.
In case of hepatic damage, the liver uses a unique regeneration mechanism through proliferation of hepatocytes. If this process is inhibited, bipotent oval stem cells proliferate and differentiate to hepatocytes and bile ducts, thus restoring liver mass. Although oval cell accumulation in the liver is often associated with inflammatory processes, the role of lymphocytes in oval cell-mediated he...
متن کاملMultifactoral etiology of human liver cancer.
Liver cancer is one of the most prevalent forms of cancer in the world. Hepatitis B virus (HBV)* is considered to be a major etiological factor (1,2), and an intervention strategy based on vaccination has been formulated (3). Evidence from epidemiological studies has also indicated that environmental contaminants, such as mycotoxins, may either in combination with HBV or independently be import...
متن کاملCan serotonin agonists unlock age-dependent failure of liver regeneration?
The function of the liver is well-preserved during the aging process, although some evidence suggests that liver regeneration might be impaired with advanced age. We observed a decreased ability of the liver to restore normal volume after partial hepatectomy in elderly mice, and we identified a pathway that rescued regeneration and was triggered by serotonin. 2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodoamphetamine (DO...
متن کاملMiR‐17~92 ablation impairs liver regeneration in an estrogen‐dependent manner
As one of the most important post-transcriptional regulators, microRNAs (miRNAs) participate in diverse biological processes, including the regulation of cell proliferation. MiR-17~92 has been found to act as an oncogene, and it is closely associated with cell proliferation. However, its role in liver regeneration is still unclear. We generated a hepatocyte-specific miR-17~92-deficient mouse an...
متن کاملLiver regeneration after liver transplantation.
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE The liver has a remarkable capacity to regenerate after injury or resection. The aim of this review is to outline the mechanisms and factors affecting liver regeneration after liver transplantation. METHODS Relevant studies were reviewed using Medline, PubMed and Springer databases. RESULTS A variety of cytokines (such as interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α), growth...
