Background and Aims: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a preferred cell source for the generation of hepatocyte-like cells in regenerative medicine. They can be isolated from different sources, including adipose tissues. The Raman spectroscopy approach was evaluated for quick and efficient identification of MSCs differentiation status and a broader perspective on cell differentiation. Material...
The main challenge in hepatic tissue engineering is the fast dedifferentiation of primary hepatocytes in vitro. One successful approach to maintain hepatocyte phenotype on the longer term is the cultivation of cells as aggregates. This paper demonstrates the use of an agarose micro-well chip for the high throughput generation of hepatocyte aggregates, uniform in size. In our study we observed t...
UNLABELLED Acute liver injury causes massive hepatocyte apoptosis and/or fatal liver damage. Fibronectin, an extracellular matrix glycoprotein, is prominently expressed during adult tissue repair. However, the extent of fibronectin dependence on hepatocyte response to acute liver damage remains to be defined. Because identification of hepatic survival factors is critical for successful therapeu...
Aberrant signaling through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway is a critical determinant in human and rodent liver carcinogenesis and generally accepted to be a potent driver of proliferation. Xenobiotic agonists of the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) induce massive acute hyperplasia of mouse liver and facilitate the outgrowth of hepatocellular carcinomas with activated β-catenin. In the present s...
Hepatocytes form a crucially important cell layer that separates sinusoidal blood from the canalicular bile. They have a uniquely organized polarity with a basal membrane facing liver sinusoidal endothelial cells, while one or more apical poles can contribute to several bile canaliculi jointly with the directly opposing hepatocytes. Establishment and maintenance of hepatocyte polarity is essent...
OBJECTIVE Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) is a nuclear receptor expressed in tissues with high oxidative activity that plays a central role in metabolism. In this work, we investigated the effect of hepatocyte PPARα on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). DESIGN We constructed a novel hepatocyte-specific PPARα knockout (Pparα(hep-/-)) mouse model. Using this novel m...
BACKGROUND Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose induces massive hepatocyte necrosis. Necrotic tissue releases high mobility group B1 (HMGB1), and HMGB1 contributes to liver injury. Even though blockade of HMGB1 does not protect against APAP-induced acute liver injury (ALI) at 9 h time point, the later time points are not studied and the role of HMGB1 in APAP overdose is unknown, it is possible that ne...
"Hepatocyte hybridomas" have been isolated after fusion of adult hepatocytes and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)-producing mouse hepatoma cells. The yield of viable hybrid clones was low but could be increased by culturing the cells in the presence of insulin. On the basis of their chromosome constitution, the hybrids were classified into two groups characterized by either a single or a double set of m...
Differentiation of adult bone marrow stem cells (BMSC) into hepatocyte-like cells is commonly performed by continuous exposure to a cytokines-cocktail. Here, it is shown that the differentiation efficacy in vitro can be considerably enhanced by sequential addition of liver-specific factors (fibroblast growth factor-4, hepatocyte growth factor, insulin-transferrin-sodium selenite, and dexamethas...
Guo, Hongtao, Junping Wei, Yusuke Inoue, Frank J. Gonzalez, and Paul C. Kuo. Serine/threonine phosphorylation regulates HNF-4 -dependent redox-mediated iNOS expression in hepatocytes. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 284: C1090–C1099, 2003. First published December 4, 2002; 10.1152/ajpcell.00394.2002.—Nitric oxide (NO), endogenously synthesized by inducible NO synthase (iNOS), serves antioxidant and a...
