Impairing hepatocyte regeneration to determine the regenerative capacity of the biliary epithelium [PDF]
Liver injury stimulates hepatocyte proliferation, regenerating the liver through self-replication. In cases where there is severe, repetitive, parenchymal damage, as seen in human chronic liver disease, hepatocyte mediated regeneration becomes impaired.

Hepatocyte TLR4 triggers inter-hepatocyte Jagged1/Notch signaling to determine NASH-induced fibrosis [PDF]
Aberrant hepatocyte Notch activity is critical to the development of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH)–induced liver fibrosis, but mechanisms underlying Notch reactivation in developed liver are unclear. Here, we identified that increased expression of

The role of hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor in hepatoblastoma and hepatocellular carcinoma progression [PDF]
Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) is a ubiquitously expressed molecule that elicits pleiotropic functions on epithelial cells, including mitogenic, motogenic, differentiating, angiogenic, and morphogenic effects. The receptor for HGF/SF is

Autophagy performs essential cell functions in the liver through an intracellular lysosomal degradation process. Several studies have reported that autophagy deficiency can lead to liver injury, including hepatic fibrosis; however, the mechanisms ...

Dynamics of Hepatitis B Virus Covalently Closed Circular DNA: A Mini-Review
Eradication of cccDNA is an ideal goal of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) therapy. Understanding the changes in the cccDNA pool during therapy provides a basis for developing CHB treatment strategies.
