..., accompanied with reduced liver fibrosis. The anti-fibrotic mechanism involved inhibition of profibrotic genes and blocking of hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation. Our data show that roscovitine administration protects against liver diseases through inhibition of macrophage inflammatory actions and HSC...

... in liver fibrosis. By flow cytometry, we documented increased frequencies of peripheral ILC3 (Lin − CD127 + CD117 + CD294 − lymphocytes) in patients, especially at the advanced stage of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related chronic liver diseases, and demonstrated their correlations with disease progression...

... of HMGB1-induced HSCs autophagy in liver fibrosis has not been elucidated. Here, we first documented an enrichment of peripheral and intrahepatic HMGB1 signal in hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related liver fibrosis progression, and presented a direct evidence of anatomic proximity of HMGB1 with a-SMA (a marker...

... in these models. Results: miR-223 expression was significantly dysregulated in livers from mice after induction of acute liver injury and liver fibrosis as well as in liver samples from patients with ALF or liver cirrhosis. In acute and chronic models, hepatic miR-223 up-regulation was restricted to hepatocytes...

... time–density curves were fitted with a dual-input one-compartmental model to calculate the hepatic mean transit time and distribution volume of the contrast agents. In the rabbits with liver fibrosis, the mean transit time of the high-molecular-mass agent was shorter than that of the low-molecular-mass...

...R. Alcolado; M. J. P. Arthur; J. P. Iredale 1. Liver fibrosis is a common sequel to diverse liver injuries. It is characterized by an accumulation of interstitial collagens and other matrix components. The hepatic stellate cell is pivotal to the pathogenic process. Fibrotic liver injury results...

...J. P. Iredale; S. Goddard; G. Murphy; R. C. Benyon; M. J. P. Arthur 1. Activated hepatic lipocytes are central to the pathogenesis of liver fibrosis as the principal source of both interstitial collagens and matrix-degrading metalloproteinases. In progressive fibrosis there is a failure to degrade...
