Endothelial cell-derived signals in liver development and regeneration
The liver harbors a specialized capillary bed. It is characterized by Lyve-1 and VEGFR3 expression, low CD31 and vWF expression and lack of CD34 expression [1], Moreover, the basement membrane is discontinuous, and liver sinusoidal endothelial cells are adjacent to a discontinuous basement membrane. Finally, the blood flow through liver sinusoidal capillaries is slow compared to many other orga...
متن کاملCutting edge: membrane lymphotoxin regulates CD8(+) T cell-mediated intestinal allograft rejection.
Blocking the CD28/B7 and/or CD154/CD40 costimulatory pathways promotes long-term allograft survival in many transplant models where CD4(+) T cells are necessary for rejection. When CD8(+) T cells are sufficient to mediate rejection, these approaches fail, resulting in costimulation blockade-resistant rejection. To address this problem we examined the role of lymphotoxin-related molecules in CD8...
متن کاملMevalonate-derived proteins in liver regeneration.
Sixteen hours after partial hepatectomy in the rat, the synthesis of mevalonate (MVA) is not committed to produce cholesterol and only partially utilized for dolichol formation. In order to investigate the fate of MVA in this replicative system, slices of the remaining liver were incubated with 5-3H-MVA. Labeled proteins from whole liver and purified nuclei were analyzed after extensive delipid...
متن کاملMast cell-derived serine proteinase regulates T helper 2 polarization
Although mast cells play a critical role in allergic reactions, the cells are also involved in the protective immunity in the body. This study aims to investigate the role of mast cells in immune regulation during aberrant T helper (Th)2 responses. In this study, an adoptive antigen-specific Th2 response model was established with mast cell-deficient mice to test the role of mast cell in the im...
متن کاملTLR-4 regulates CD8+ T cell trapping in the liver.
Mammalian TLRs are understood primarily as an activating system for innate and adaptive immunity, but have also been implicated in sensing cellular damage and in promoting intestinal integrity. In this study we show that TLR-4 also controls the in vivo distribution of activated CD8+ T cells. The liver is a site for trapping and apoptosis of activated CD8+ T cells during systemic immune response...
