Human hepatocyte nuclear factor-1β (HNF1B) 1968A/G polymorphism [PDF]

Journal of Human Genetics, 2000
We found a novel A-->G change at nucleotide 1968 within the 3'-untranslated region of the HNF1B gene encoding the hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 beta. The HNF1B 1968A/G polymorphism could be detected by digestion with endonuclease MspI. The frequency of the HNF1B 1968G allele was 0.060 in Caucasians and 0.129 in Canadian Oji-Cree.

A Novel Protein‐Polysaccharide Oral Nanoemulsion Targeting Activated Hepatic Stellate Cells to Enhance the Therapeutic Effect of Pirfenidone on Fibrosis After Transarterial Chemoembolization for Liver Cancer

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) may aggravate liver fibrosis. In this study, a novel oral targeting nanoemulsion is fabricated to enhance the therapeutic effect of antifibrotic drug‐pirfenidone (PFD) on fibrosis after TACE. Studies have shown that PFD nanoemulsion can enhance the oral liver targeting effect of PFD, and effectively improve the ...

Role of the Liver-Enriched Transcription Factor Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 1 in Transcriptional Regulation of the Factor VIII Gene [PDF]

Molecular and Cellular Biology, 1996
Coagulation factor VIII is an essential cofactor required for normal hemostatic function. A deficiency in factor VIII results in the bleeding disorder hemophilia A. Despite the fact that the factor VIII gene was cloned a decade ago, the mechanisms which control its transcription remain unresolved.

Cell proliferation and oncogene expression after bile duct ligation in the rat: Evidence of a specific growth effect on bile duct cells [PDF]

, 1995
The proliferative response of the rat liver was measured after temporary or permanent total biliary obstruction (BDO) and in different regions after selective ligation of the lobar ducts draining the right 60% of the hepatic mass.

Alleviation of Aging‐Related Hallmarks in a Mouse Model of Progeria via a Nanoparticle‐Based Artificial Transcription Factor

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Oct4‐nanoscript, a biomimetic nanoparticle‐based artificial transcription factor, precisely regulates cellular rejuvenation by activating Oct4 target genes, restoring epigenetic marks, and reducing DNA damage. In a progeria model, it effectively rescued aging‐associated pathologies and extended lifespan.

Self‐Organizing Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Hepatocyte 3D Organoids Inform the Biology of the Pleiotropic TRIB1 Gene

Hepatology Communications, 2020
Establishment of a physiologically relevant human hepatocyte‐like cell system for in vitro translational research has been hampered by the limited availability of cell models that accurately reflect human biology and the pathophysiology of human disease.

Liquid Crystalline Networks Hamper the Malignancy of Cancer Cells

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 7, March 14, 2025.
Liquid Crystalline Networks are used as scaffolds for the growth of A375 melanoma cells demonstrating to affect their malignancy. Indeed, only by contact, these materials reduces cell proliferation and colony formation capacity, while increasing the number of senescent cells and promoting the mesenchymal to epithelial transition.

TLRs, NF-κB, JNK, and Liver Regeneration

Gastroenterology Research and Practice, 2010
While hepatocytes rarely undergo proliferation in normal livers, they quickly induce proliferation in response to loss of liver mass by toxin or inflammation-induced hepatocyte injury, trauma, or surgical resection, leading to a restoration of liver mass

Mathematical analysis of an extended cellular model of the Hepatitis C Virus infection with non-cytolytic process [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
The aims of this work is to analyse of the global stability of the extended model of hepatitis C virus(HCV) infection with cellular proliferation, spontaneous cure and hepatocyte homeostasis. We first give general information about hepatitis C. Secondly, We prove the existence of local, maximal and global solutions of the model and establish some ...
