Phenotypical and Functional Polymorphism of Liver Resident Macrophages
Liver diseases are one of the main causes of mortality. In this regard, the development of new ways of reparative processes stimulation is relevant. Macrophages play a leading role in the regulation of liver homeostasis in physiological conditions and in

Background Hepatic macrophage (Kupffer cell) hyperplasia is often described in Wilson’s disease (WD). In many liver diseases, Kupffer cell activation is related to disease severity, liver function, and fibrosis but the importance in WD is unknown ...

Antimicrobial properties of Kupffer cells [PDF]
To characterize the antimicrobial activities of Kupffer cells, I harvested macrophages from livers with a technique involving perfusion with collagenase and DNase. Ninety-nine percent of glass-adherent cells had typical macrophage morphology, 99% were esterase positive, and 60% phagocytosed opsonized zymosan when challenged with four particles per ...

Functions of hepatic non-parenchymal cells in alcoholic liver disease
Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) represents a wide spectrum of disease from simple steatosis to cirrhosis. Although there have been multiple attempts to treat ALD, its treatment is still based on abstinence from alcohol and using corticosteroids in ...
