Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis. Abstract Background and Aims Nucleotide‐binding oligomerization domain‐like receptor‐family pyrin domain‐containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation has been shown to result in liver fibrosis.

Metabolism and secretion of retinol transport complex in acute renal failure

Journal of Lipid Research, 1991
Tissue uptake and distribution of retinol from circulatory vitamin A transport complex was studied in order to determine the origin of the increased serum retinol in rats with short-term acute renal failure.

Improvement of mild photoaged facial skin in middle‐aged Chinese females by a supramolecular retinol plus acetyl hexapeptide‐1 containing essence

Skin Health and Disease, 2023
Background The anti‐ageing gold standard, retinol, has been widely recognized for its anti‐wrinkle benefits in the Chinese population. Studies have shown that Asians are more sensitive to retinol compared to their Caucasian counterparts, and it is ...

CD8+ T cell memory is sustained in mice by hepatic stellate cells

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
HSC role in memory CD8+ T cell maintenance. Abstract Background and Aims Long‐lasting immunological memory is the ultimate goal of vaccination. Homeostatic maintenance of memory CD8+ cytotoxic T cells (MemCD8TCs) is thought to be mediated by IL‐15/IL‐15R heterodimer (15HD)‐expressing myeloid cells.

Emergence of highly profibrotic and proinflammatory Lrat+Fbln2+ HSC subpopulation in alcoholic hepatitis

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Lrat+ quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSC) give rise to Lrat+Fbln2+ activated HSC (aHSC) in alcohol‐associated hepatitis and this subpopulation is highly profibrotic, inflammatory, and immunoregulatory based on their single cell transcriptomic profile. Abstract Background and Aims Relative roles of HSCs and portal fibroblasts in alcoholic hepatitis (

Extraction and recombination studies of the interaction of retinol with human plasma retinol-binding protein

Journal of Lipid Research, 1972
Methods have been developed for the removal of retinol from human plasma retinol-binding protein (RBP), so as to form the retinol-free apoprotein, and for the recombination of apo-RBP with retinol to again form the holoprotein.

Regulation of retinol uptake and esterification in MCF-7 and HepG2 cells by exogenous fatty acids

Journal of Lipid Research, 1991
The influence of extracellular fatty acids on the uptake and esterification of [3H]retinol bound to human retinol-binding protein (RBP), to RBP-transthyretin (TTR), or in dispersed form by the human hepatoma, HepG2, and human mammary epithelial carcinoma,
