Hepatic factor may not originate from hepatocytes [PDF]
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) develop universally in patients with univentricular congenital heart disease. They are believed to form due to lack of an unidentified factor from hepatocytes that perfuses the lungs to maintain vascular ...

sVEGFR1 Is Enriched in Hepatic Vein Blood—Evidence for a Provisional Hepatic Factor Candidate? [PDF]
Background: Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) are common sequelae of palliated univentricular congenital heart disease, yet their pathogenesis remain poorly defined.

Angiogenic Factor Expression in Hepatic Cirrhosis [PDF]
The pathogenesis of fibrosis in hepatic cirrhosis remains obscure. This study examines the eventual role of angiogenic factors in the fibrotic process. A series of 55 cirrhotic livers was studied for the proliferation state of fibroblasts, and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), thymidine phosphorylase (TP) and the basic and ...

Apigenin role against thioacetamide-triggered liver fibrosis: Deciphering the PPARγ/TGF-β1/NF-κB and the HIF/FAK/AKT pathways [PDF]
Introduction: Liver tissue malfunction is a severe worldwide health concern that arises from various chronic liver conditions. The goal of this investigation was to look into the anti-fibrotic effect of apigenin (APG), an antioxidant found in various ...

Hepatic fibrosis is caused by liver damage as a consequence of wound healing response. Recent studies have shown that hepatic fibrosis could be effectively reversed, partly through regression of activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs).

Hepatic regeneration and growth factors [PDF]
During the last decade, evidence has been collected on the central role played by growth stimulating factors (GsF) [1–9] and growth inhibiting factors (GiF) [10–12] in the mechanism of tissue growth regulation, using different experimental models [13]. The model of partial hepatectomy (PH) in rats has provided numerous findings on the existence of this
