An improved experimental method for simultaneously isolating hepatocytes and hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver infected with Echinococcus multilocularis

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 35, Issue 12, December 2021., 2021
A method that can simultaneously isolate hepatocytes and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) from mouse infected with Echinococcus multilocularis was established. Abstract Background Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a zoonotic disease caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus multilocularis parasitizing in the human liver, causing local pathological changes ...
