The liver is capable of undergoing a proliferative growth, known as direct hyperplasia, in which the naïve liver increases in size due to stimulation with primary mitogens. To produce accurate gene expression data, housekeeping genes (HKGs) that are stably expressed need to be determined. In the present study, liver regeneration was promoted via the direct hyperplasia mode by inducing mice with 1,4-bis[2-(3,5-dichloropyridyloxy)]benzene. Gene expression levels of nine commonly used HKGs were analyzed in the liver of different timing during the regeneration. The stability of gene expression was assessed using two different analysis programs, geNorm and NormFinder. Using these analyses, we identified that PPIA and RPL4 showed the most stable expression regardless of the status of the liver regeneration. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that the use of PPIA and RPL4 were the most optimal in providing reliable normalization of gene expression when assessing liver regeneration attributed to direct hyperplasia. 相似文献

Liver regeneration is a complicated biological process orchestrated by various liver resident cells. Hepatic cell proliferation and reconstruction of the hepatic architecture involve multiple signaling pathways. It has been reported that the Hh signal is involved in liver regeneration. However, the signal transduction pathways and cell types involved are ill studied. This study aimed to investigate hedgehog signal response cell types and the specific molecular mechanism involved in the process of liver regeneration. Partial hepatectomy (PH) of 70% was performed on ICR (Institute of Cancer Research) mice to study the process of liver regeneration. We found that the hedgehog signal was activated significantly after PH, including hedgehog ligands, receptors and intracellular signaling molecules. Ligand signals were mainly expressed in bile duct cells and non-parenchymal hepatic cells, while receptors were expressed in hepatocytes and some non-parenchymal cells. Inhibition of the hedgehog signal treated with vismodegib reduced the liver regeneration rate after partial hepatectomy, including inhibition of hepatic cell proliferation by decreasing Cyclin D expression and disturbing the cell cycle through the accumulation of Cyclin B. The current study reveals the important role of the hedgehog signal and its participation in the regulation of hepatic cell proliferation and the cell cycle during liver regeneration. It provides new insight into the recovery of the liver after liver resection. 相似文献

The liver has the unique capacity to regulate its growth and mass. In rodents and humans, it grows rapidly after resection of more than 50% of its mass. This growth process, as well as that following acute chemical injury is known as liver regeneration, although growth takes place by compensatory hyperplasia rather than true regeneration. In addition to hepatocytes and non-parenchymal cells, the liver contains intra-hepatic "stem" cells which can generate a transit compartment of precursors named oval cells. Liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy does not involve intra or extra-hepatic (hemopoietic) stem cells but depends on the proliferation of hepatocytes. Transplantation and repopulation experiments have demonstrated that hepatocytes, which are highly differentiated and long-lived cells, have a remarkable capacity for multiple rounds of replication. In this article, we review some aspects of the regulation of hepatocyte proliferation as well as the interrelationships between hepatocytes and oval cells in different liver growth processes. We conclude that in the liver, normally quiescent differentiated cells replicate rapidly after tissue resection, while intra-hepatic precursor cells (oval cells) proliferate and generate lineage only in situations in which hepatocyte proliferation is blocked or delayed. Although bone marrow stem cells can generate oval cells and hepatocytes, transdifferentiation is very rare and inefficient. 相似文献

Recent evidence suggests that signaling pathways towards cell proliferation and cell death are much more interconnected than previously thought. Whereas not only death receptors such as CD95 (Fas, APO-1) can couple to both, cell death and proliferation, also growth factor receptors such as the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) are involved in these opposing kinds of cell fate. EGFR is briefly discussed as a growth factor receptor involved in liver cell proliferation during liver regeneration. Then the role of EGFR in activating CD95 death receptor in liver parenchymal cells (PC) and hepatic stellate cells (HSC), which represent a liver stem/progenitor cell compartment, is described summarizing different ways of CD95- and EGFR-dependent signaling in the liver. Here, depending on the hepatic cell type (PC vs. HSC) and the respective signaling context (sustained vs. transient JNK activation) CD95-/EGFR-mediated signaling ends up in either liver cell apoptosis or cell proliferation. 相似文献

Abstract. Events secondary to induced cell proliferation may play a role in the carcinogenic process. These studies investigated the expression of genes associated with growth control in response to two types of cell proliferation stimuli in the livers of male F344 rats. Regenerative hepatocyte proliferation after partial hepatectomy or a single dose of carbon tetrachloride, and mitogenic liver hyperplasia induced by a single dose of pheno-barbital or WY-14,643 were assessed by thymidine incorporation and quantitative autoradiography. The expression of myc, fos , and Ha- ras was evaluated by Northern blot analysis of liver derived poly(A)+ mRNA from these same animals. After each treatment, the level of hepatocyte proliferation (labelling index 4–32%) was observed to peak between 24 and 48 h and return to control values by 8 days. In every case, a peak in myc expression was seen between 0.5 and 18 h depending on the proliferative stimulus treatment. A large peak in fos expression was seen at 0.5–2 h but only with the cytotoxic and regenerative proliferative treatments partial hepatectomy or carbon tetrachloride. A broad peak in Ha -ras expression was observed 12 to 36 h after each treatment. These data demonstrate transient expression of these genes following the synchronous induction of hepatocyte proliferation. The increased expression of fos upon treatment with cytotoxicants, but not mitogens, suggests different modes of growth regulation that may be important in understanding the induction of cell proliferation by these two types of agents. 相似文献

Liver regeneration is a complex process, having evolved to protect animals from the consequences of liver loss caused by food toxins. In this study, we established a mathematical spatial-temporal model of the liver lobule regenerating after CCl(4) intoxication. The aim of modelling the regeneration process by matching experimental observations with those from a mathematical model is to gain a better understanding of the process and to recognize which parameters are relevant for specific phenomena. In order to set up a realistic minimal model, we first reconstructed a schematised liver lobule after determination of: (i) the mean number of hepatocytes between the central vein and the periphery of the lobule, (ii) the mean size of the hepatocytes and (iii) the mean number of hepatocyte columns in the inner, midzonal and peripheral ring of the lobule. In a next step, we determined the time course of cell death and BrdU incorporation after intoxication of male Sprague Dawley rats with CCl(4), thereby differentiating between inner, midzonal and peripheral hepatocytes. These parameters were used to construct a model. The basic unit of this model is the individual cell. The detailed behaviour of the cells is studied, controlled by the model parameters: (1) probability of cell division at defined positions of the lobule at a given time, (2) "coordinated cell orientation", i.e., the ability of the cells to align during the regeneration process into columns towards the central vein of a liver lobule, (3) cell cycle duration, (4) the migration activity and (5) the polarity of the hepatocytes resulting in polar cell-cell adhesion between them. In a schematised lobule, the model shows that CCl(4) initially induced cell death of a pericentral ring of hepatocytes, followed by a wave of proliferation that starts in the surviving hepatocytes next to the inner ring of dead cells and continues to the peripheral hepatocytes, finally restoring the characteristic micro-architecture of the lobule in a 7-day process. This model was used to systematically analyze the influence of parameters 1-5. Interestingly, coordinated cell orientation and cell polarity were identified to be the most critical parameters. Elimination led to destruction of the characteristic micro-architecture of the lobule and to a high degree of disorder characterized by hexagonal cell structures. Our model suggests that the ability of hepatocytes to realign after cell division by a process of coordinated cell orientation (model parameter 2) in combination with cell polarity (model parameter 5) may be at least as critical as hepatocyte proliferation (model parameter 1) itself. 相似文献

The network of interactions underlying liver regeneration is robust and precise with liver resections resulting in controlled hyperplasia (cell proliferation) that terminates when the liver regains its lost mass. The interplay of cytokines and growth factors responsible for the inception and termination of this hyperplasia is not well understood. A model is developed for this network of interactions based on the known data of liver resections. This model reproduces the relevant published data on liver regeneration and provides geometric insights into the experimental observations. The predictions of this model are used to suggest two novel strategies for speeding up liver mass recovery and a strategy for enabling liver mass recovery in cases where a resection leaves <20% of the liver that would otherwise result in complete loss of liver mass. 相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a cytokine produced by macrophages and T lymphocytes that acts through two distinct receptors, TNFR1 (60 kD, CD120a) and TNFR2 (80 kD, CD120b), to affect cellular proliferation, differentiation, survival, and cell death. In addition to its proinflammatory actions in mucosal tissue, TNF is important for liver regeneration. Keratin 8 (K8) and keratin 18 (K18) form intermediate filaments characteristic of liver and other single cell layered, internal epithelia and their derivative cancers. K8-deficient (K8(-)) mice, which escape embryonic lethality, develop inflammatory colorectal hyperplasia, mild liver abnormalities, and tolerate hepatectomy poorly. We show that normal and malignant epithelial cells deficient in K8 and K18 are approximately 100 times more sensitive to TNF-induced death. K8 and K18 both bind the cytoplasmic domain of TNFR2 and moderate TNF-induced, Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) intracellular signaling and NFkappaB activation. Furthermore, K8(-) and K18(-) mice are much more sensitive to TNF dependent, apoptotic liver damage induced by the injection of concanavalin A. This moderation of the effects of TNF may be the fundamental function of K8 and K18 common to liver regeneration, inflammatory bowel disease, hepatotoxin sensitivity, and the diagnostic, persistent expression of these keratins in many carcinomas. 相似文献

Hepatic stem cell niche plays an important role in hepatic oval cell-mediated liver regeneration. As a component of hepatic stem cell niche, the role of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) in oval cell proliferation needs further studies. In the present study, we isolated HSCs from rats at indicated time point after partial hepatectomy (PH) in 2-acetylaminofluorene/PH oval cell proliferation model. Conditional medium (CM) from HSCs were collected to detect their effects on proliferation and the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway activation of two oval cell lines. We found that CM collected from HSCs at early phase of liver regeneration (4 and 9?days group) contained high levels of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and stimulated oval cell proliferation via extracellular signal-regulated kinase and p38 pathway. CM collected from HSCs at terminal phase of liver regeneration (12 and 15?days group) contained high levels of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1, which suppressed DNA synthesis of oval cells. The shift between these two distinct effects depended on the balance between HGF and TGF-β1 secreted by HSCs. Our study demonstrated that HSCs acted as a positive regulator at the early phase and a negative regulator at the terminal phase of the oval cell-mediated liver regeneration.

C3a and C3b activation products of the third component of complement (C3) are critical for normal liver recovery after toxic injury 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Markiewski MM Mastellos D Tudoran R DeAngelis RA Strey CW Franchini S Wetsel RA Erdei A Lambris JD 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2004,173(2):747-754
Although the complement system has been implicated in liver regeneration after toxic injury and partial hepatectomy, the mechanism or mechanisms through which it participates in these processes remains ill-defined. In this study, we demonstrate that complement activation products (C3a, C3b/iC3b) are generated in the serum of experimental mice after CCl(4) injection and that complement activation is required for normal liver regeneration. Decomplementation by cobra venom factor resulted in impaired entry of hepatocytes into S phase of the cell cycle. In addition, livers from C3-deficient (C3(-/-)) mice showed similarly impaired proliferation of hepatocytes, along with delayed kinetics of both hepatocyte hyperplasia and removal of injured liver parenchyma. Restoration of hepatocyte proliferative capabilities of C3(-/-) mice through C3a reconstitution, as well as the impaired regeneration of C3a receptor-deficient mice, demonstrated that C3a promotes liver cell proliferation via the C3a receptor. These findings, together with data showing two waves of complement activation, indicate that C3 activation is a pivotal mechanism for liver regeneration after CCl(4) injury, which fulfills multiple roles; C3a generated early after toxin injection is relevant during the priming of hepatocytes, whereas C3 activation at later times after CCl(4) treatment contributes to the clearance of injured tissue. 相似文献

Liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy is a process with various types of cells involved. The role of Kupffer cells (KCs) in liver regeneration is still controversial. In this study we isolated KCs from regenerating liver and conducted cell-specific microarray analysis. The results demonstrated that the controversial role of KCs in liver regeneration could be explained with the expression patterns of TGF-α, IL-6, TNF, and possibly IL-18 during liver regeneration. IL-18 may play an important role in negative regulation of liver regeneration. The functional profiles of gene expression in KCs also indicated that KC signaling might play a negative role in cell proliferation: signaling genes were down regulated before cell division. Immune response genes in KCs were also down regulated during liver regeneration, demonstrating similar expression profiles to that of hepatocytes. The expression patterns of key genes in these functional categories were consistent with the temporal functional profiles. 相似文献

Multicellular organisms are equipped with cellular mechanisms that enable them to replace differentiated cells lost to normal physiological turnover, injury, and for some such as planarians, even amputation. This process of tissue homeostasis is generally mediated by adult stem cells (ASCs), tissue-specific stem cells responsible for maintaining anatomical form and function. To do so, ASCs must modulate the balance between cell proliferation, i.e. in response to nutrients, and that of cell death, i.e. in response to starvation or injury. But how these two antagonistic processes are coordinated remains unclear. Here, we explore the role of the core components of the TOR pathway during planarian tissue homeostasis and regeneration and identified an essential function for TORC1 in these two processes. RNAi-mediated silencing of TOR in intact animals resulted in a significant increase in cell death, whereas stem cell proliferation and stem cell maintenance were unaffected. Amputated animals failed to increase stem cell proliferation after wounding and displayed defects in tissue remodeling. Together, our findings suggest two distinct roles for TORC1 in planarians. TORC1 is required to modulate the balance between cell proliferation and cell death during normal cell turnover and in response to nutrients. In addition, it is required to initiate appropriate stem cell proliferation during regeneration and for proper tissue remodeling to occur to maintain scale and proportion. 相似文献

The Hepatitis B virus X (HBx) protein has been strongly implicated in the carcinogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, effects of the HBx protein on cell proliferation and cell death are controversial. This study investigates the effects of the HBx protein on liver regeneration in two independent lines of HBx transgenic mice, which developed HCC at around 14 to 16 months of age. High mortality, lower liver mass restoration, and impaired liver regeneration were found in the HBx transgenic mice post-hepatectomy. The levels of alanine aminotransferase and alpha-fetoprotein detected post-hepatectomy increased significantly in the HBx transgenic livers, indicating that they were more susceptible to damage during the regenerative process. Prolonged activation of the immediate-early genes in the HBx transgenic livers suggested that the HBx protein creates a strong effect by promoting the transition of the quiescent hepatocytes from G0 to G1 phase. However, impaired DNA synthesis and mitosis, as well as inhibited activation of G1, S, and G2/M markers, were detected. These results indicated that HBx protein exerted strong growth arrest on hepatocytes and imbalanced cell-cycle progression resulting in the abnormal cell death; this was accompanied by severe fat accumulation and impaired glycogen storage in the HBx transgenic livers. In conclusion, this study provides the first physiological evidence that HBx protein blocks G1/S transition of the hepatocyte cell-cycle progression and causes both a failure of liver functionality and cell death in the regenerating liver of the HBx transgenic mice. 相似文献

Genes dedicated to killing cells must have evolved because of their positive effects on organismal survival. Positive functions of apoptotic genes have been well established in a large number of biological contexts, including their role in eliminating damaged and potentially cancerous cells. More recently, evidence has suggested that proapoptotic proteins-mostly caspases-can induce proliferation of neighboring surviving cells to replace dying cells. This process, that we will refer to as "apoptosis-induced proliferation," may be critical for stem cell activity and tissue regeneration. Depending on the caspases involved, at least two distinct types of apoptosis-induced proliferation can be distinguished. One of these types have been studied using a model in which cells have initiated cell death, but are prevented from executing it because of effector caspase inhibition, thereby generating "undead" cells that emit persistent mitogen signaling and overgrowth. Such conditions are likely to contribute to certain forms of cancer. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge of apoptosis-induced proliferation and discuss its relevance for tissue regeneration and cancer. 相似文献

A theoretical analysis of cell proliferation as a selflimiting process designed to maintain the integrity of an entire multicellular organism and based on the principles of a "hypercycle" suggests the need for the existence, starting at a certain level of multicellular organization, of a specialized system in control of tissue proliferation, a system represented by a body of cells capable of both stimulating and inhibiting the proliferation of a variety of cell types. An analysis of experimental data in different fields of the biological science points to certain T-cell populations as probable candidate for the role of cellular regulators of tissue proliferation. Using as an example the induction of murine liver regeneration by the administration of CCL4, the author demonstrates the dynamics of the formation of cells stimulating and inhibiting regeneration, which conforms well to theoretical considerations. 相似文献

The liver has remarkable regeneration potency that restores liver mass and sustains body hemostasis. Liver regeneration through signaling pathways following resection or moderate damages are well studied. Various cell signaling, growth factors, cytokines, receptors, and cell types implicated in liver regeneration undergo controlled hypertrophy and proliferation. Some aspects of liver regeneration have been discovered and many investigations have been carried out to identify its mechanisms. However, for optimizing liver regeneration more should be understood about mechanisms that control the growth of hepatocytes and other liver cell types in adults. The current paper deals with the possible applicability of liver regeneration signaling pathways as a target for therapeutic approaches and preventing various liver damages. Furthermore, the latest findings of spectrum-specific signaling pathway mechanisms that underlie liver regeneration are briefly described. 相似文献

Regeneration is a complex process that requires a coordinated genetic response to tissue loss. Signals from dying cells are crucial to this process and are best understood in the context of regeneration following programmed cell death, like apoptosis. Conversely, regeneration following unregulated forms of death, such as necrosis, have yet to be fully explored. Here, we have developed a method to investigate regeneration following necrosis using the Drosophila wing imaginal disc. We show that necrosis stimulates regeneration at an equivalent level to that of apoptosis-mediated cell death and activates a similar response at the wound edge involving localized JNK signaling. Unexpectedly, however, necrosis also results in significant apoptosis far from the site of ablation, which we have termed necrosis-induced apoptosis (NiA). This apoptosis occurs independent of changes at the wound edge and importantly does not rely on JNK signaling. Furthermore, we find that blocking NiA limits proliferation and subsequently inhibits regeneration, suggesting that tissues damaged by necrosis can activate programmed cell death at a distance from the injury to promote regeneration. 相似文献
