Apolipoprotein E is secreted by cultured lipocytes of the rat liver.
Hepatic lipocytes, the retinoid-storing cells of the liver, share several characteristics with vascular smooth muscle cells. To determine whether they also share the characteristic of apolipoprotein E secretion, we have compared the relative mRNA ...

Clinical and experimental studies of intrahepatic islet transplantation have allowed histological and systemic observations to be made, but the location of the transplanted islets makes it difficult to assess direct effects on the cells of the liver.

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

Upregulation of Kupffer cell β-adrenoceptors and cAMP levels during the late stage of sepsis [PDF]
Although a burst of immunoresponsiveness may occur during the early stage of sepsis, late sepsis is characterized by severe immunodepression. In addition, although studies have shown that stimulation of macrophage β-adrenoceptors results in an increase ...

An efficient method to isolate Kupffer cells eliminating endothelial cell contamination and selective bias [PDF]
Multi-colour flow cytometry and cell-sorting are powerful immunological tools for the study of hepatic macrophages, yet there is no consensus on the optimal method to prepare liver homogenates for these analyses.

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 ...
