Vasopressin regulates the growth of the biliary epithelium in polycystic liver disease [PDF]
, 2016 The neurohypophysial hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP) acts by three distinct receptor subtypes: V1a, V1b, and V2. In the liver, AVP is involved in ureogenesis, glycogenolysis, neoglucogenesis and regeneration. No data exist about the presence of AVP in

Liver X Receptors Activation Attenuates Ischemia Reperfusion Injury of Liver Graft in Rats
Journal of Investigative Surgery, 2019 Purpose: Suppression of the Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4)-nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling was critical in protection against liver IRI. Previous studies revealed that Liver X receptors (LXRs) activation could antagonize TLR4-NF-κB signaling.
