Cross-activating invariant NKT cells and kupffer cells suppress cholestatic liver injury in a mouse model of biliary obstruction. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Both Kupffer cells and invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells suppress neutrophil-dependent liver injury in a mouse model of biliary obstruction. We hypothesize that these roles are interdependent and require iNKT cell-Kupffer cell cross-activation ...

Correlation between Kupffer Cell Infiltration and Liver Parenchymal Cell Damages in Immunosuppressed Drugs-Induced Rats [PDF]
Majalah Kedokteran BandungThe liver is the largest organ in the body, composed of both parenchymal and non-parenchymal cells. Chemical substances and various drugs can induce liver injury and involve Kupffer cells which are non-parenchymal cells that release biologically active ...

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022 We have previously shown trichloroethylene (TCE) induced immune liver injury, and TNF-α/TNFR1 pathway as a probably mechanism underlying the immune damage, but the pathogenic mechanism is still unclear. The study aims to investigate whether TNF-α and its

Elucidating Spatially-Resolved Changes in Host Signaling During Plasmodium Liver-Stage Infection
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 Upon transmission to the human host, Plasmodium sporozoites exit the skin, are taken up by the blood stream, and then travel to the liver where they infect and significantly modify a single hepatocyte.

Glutathione treatment protects the rat liver against injury after warm ischemia and Kupffer cell activation [PDF]
, 2002 Background/Aim: The generation of reactive oxygen species by activated Kupffer cells (KC) may contribute to reperfusion injury of the liver during liver transplantation or resection.

Kupffer cells and their function [PDF]
Liver, 1987 ABSTRACT— The intention of this review is to stress new information regarding the quite versatile functions of Kupffer cells. Although their main function is phagocytosis and defence of the liver against bacteria, endotoxaemia and viral infections, they also fulfil other important roles.
