New Perfluorocarbon System for Multilayer Growth of Anchorage-Dependent Mammalian Cells
BioTechniques, 2002 A novel tissue culture system has been developed that supports the multilayer growth of Hep G2 cells. The system consists of growing cells on collagen-coated perfluorocarbon substrata in the wells of a multiwell plate designed so that, even at very high ...

Hepatitis B virus induces cell proliferation via HBx-induced microRNA-21 in hepatocellular carcinoma by targeting programmed cell death protein4 (PDCD4) and phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Hepatitis B viral infection-induced hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the major problems in the developing countries. One of the HBV proteins, HBx, modulates the host cell machinery via several mechanisms. In this study we hypothesized that HBV enhances

Duality Cascade and Oblique Phases in Non-Commutative Open String Theory [PDF]
, 2001 We investigate the complete phase diagram of the decoupled world-sheet theory of (P,Q) strings. These theories include 1+1 dimensional super Yang-Mills theory and non-commutative open string theory.

Identification of lipid derivatives in Hep G2 cells.
Acta Biochimica Polonica, 1970 Metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acids results in biosynthesis of mediators with different physiological effects. These metabolites include prostaglandins, prostacyclins, isoprostanes and others that are important signalling molecules and regulate a variety of physiological and pathophysiological processes including inflammation.

Parameters of cholesterol metabolism in the human hepatoma cell line, Hep-G2.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1988 The human hepatoma cell line Hep-G2 has been shown to express the major enzymes of intra- and extracellular cholesterol metabolism. These include lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase, acyl coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase, 3-hydroxy-3 ...

Stevia: limiting cholesterol synthesis in Hep-G2 cells
Asia Pacific Journal of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, 2020 As of today, no literature has been reported on the efficacy of stevia on lipid regulations conducted in vitro. Thus, the current study was focusing on the potential of Stevia rebaudiana bertoni as an anti-hypercholesterolemia substitute in limiting the de novo cholesterol synthesis in Hep-G2 cell line.

Oxygen-dependent expression of the erythropoietin gene in rat hepatocytes in vitro [PDF]
, 1993 Since in juvenile rats the liver is the predominant site of erythropoietin (EPO) gene expression, we have used primary cultures of juvenile rat hepatocytes to establish and in vitro system for investigation of oxygen-dependent EPO formation.
