A Transcriptional Sequencing Analysis of Islet Stellate Cell and Pancreatic Stellate Cell [PDF]
Journal of Diabetes Research, 2018 Background. Our previous studies have shown that islet stellate cell (ISC), similar to pancreatic stellate cell (PSC) in phenotype and biological characters, may be responsible for the islet fibrosis in type 2 diabetes.

Hepatic Stellate Cells and Hepatocarcinogenesis [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are a significant component of the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tumor microenvironment (TME). Activated HSCs transform into myofibroblast-like cells to promote fibrosis in response to liver injury or chronic inflammation, leading to cirrhosis and HCC.

β-arrestin1 activates hepatic stellate cells to promote liver fibrosis via activating p38 signaling pathway [PDF]
Xin yixue, 2023 Objective To investigate the role ofβ-arrestin1 （ARRB1） in liver fibrosis and elucidate the mechanism of hepatic stellate cell activation induced by ARRB1/p38 signaling pathway to promote liver fibrosis.

Functional properties of stellate cells in medial entorhinal cortex layer II
eLife, 2018 Layer II of the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) contains two principal cell types: pyramidal cells and stellate cells. Accumulating evidence suggests that these two cell types have distinct molecular profiles, physiological properties, and connectivity ...

Hepatic Stellate Cells Support Hematopoiesis and are Liver-Resident Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2013 Background/Aims: Hematopoiesis can occur in the liver, when the bone marrow fails to provide an adequate environment for hematopoietic stem cells.

Seven Steps to Stellate Cells [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2011 Hepatic stellate cells are liver-resident cells of star-like morphology and are located in the space of Disse between liver sinusoidal endothelial cells and hepatocytes(1,2). Stellate cells are derived from bone marrow precursors and store up to 80% of the total body vitamin A(1, 2).
