Galectin-1 is essential for efficient liver regeneration following hepatectomy [PDF]

, 2016
Galectin-1 (Gal1) is a known immune/inflammatory regulator which actsboth extracellularly and intracellularly, modulating innate and adaptive immuneresponses. Here, we explored the role of Gal1 in liver regeneration using 70% partial hepatectomy (PHx) of

Purified hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 interacts with a family of hepatocyte-specific promoters. [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1988
During development cell types arise through the activation or repression of classes of specific genes. One hypothesis is that this phenomenon is realized by tissue-specific factors playing a role at the transcription level. Recently we have described a liver-specific nuclear protein, hepatocyte nuclear factor 1, that appears to be involved in the ...

Sex significantly influences transduction of murine liver by recombinant adeno-associated viral vectors through an androgen-dependent pathway. [PDF]

, 2003
A systematic evaluation of the influence of sex on transduction by recombinant adeno-associated viral vector (rAAV) indicated that transgene expression after liver-targeted delivery of vector particles was between 5- to 13-fold higher in male mice ...

Different response to epidermal growth factor of hepatocytes in cultures isolated from male or female rat liver. Inhibitor effect of estrogen on binding and mitogenic effect of epidermal growth factor [PDF]

, 1987
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis in hepatocytes isolated from the livers of male and female rats has been compared in monolayer culture. Plating efficiency, DNA and protein content, viability, and morphologic appearance were the same in cultures ...

Effect of Urtica dioica L extract on quantitative morphometric alterations of liver parenchymal cells in STZ diabetic rats [PDF]

, 2009
Diabetes is associated with several structural and functional liver abnormalities that affect glycogen and lipid metabolism. In this study, an attempt was made to evaluate the effects of hydroalcoholic extract of Urtica dioica leaves on Quantitative ...

Activation of p53 After Irradiation Impairs the Regenerative Capacity of the Mouse Liver

Hepatology Communications, 2022
Radiation therapy is one of the treatment methods for hepatocellular carcinoma. However, radiation tolerance of the liver is low, and the detailed effect of radiation on liver regeneration has not been clarified.

A novel technique for selective NF-kappa B inhibition in Kupffer cells: contrary effects in fulminant hepatitis and ischaemia-reperfusion. [PDF]

, 2009
Background and aims: The transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) has risen as a promising target for anti-inflammatory therapeutics. In the liver, however, NFkB inhibition mediates both damaging and protective effects.

Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor-1α Gene Mutations and Diabetes in Norway [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2003
Mutations in the hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1 alpha gene cause maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY), type 3. To estimate the prevalence of MODY3 in Norwegian diabetic pedigrees, we screened a total of 130 families for HNF-1 alpha mutations; 42 families with clinical MODY, 75 with suspected MODY, and 13 pedigrees with multiplex type 1 ...

Rescue of MODY-1 by Agonist Ligands of Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor-4α [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2003
Missense mutations of the ligand binding domain of hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-4alpha result in maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY)-1. We show here that MODY-1 as well as Gln-185 missense mutants of the ligand binding domain of HNF-4alpha fail to transactivate transcription of HNF-4alpha-responsive genes.

Transcriptional activation of the cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase gene (CYP7A) by nuclear hormone receptors

Journal of Lipid Research, 1998
The gene encoding cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase (CYP7A), the rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid synthesis, is transcriptionally regulated by bile acids and hormones. Previously, we have identified two bile acid response elements (BARE) in the promoter of the
