BACKGROUND Hepatic stellate cell (HSC) plays a key role in pathogenesis of liver fibrosis. During liver injury, hypoxia in local micro-environment is inevitable. Hif-1α is the key transcriptional regulation factor that induces cell's adaptive responses to hypoxia. Recently, it was reported that MAPK is involved in regulation of Hif-1α activity. AIMS To explore whether Hif-1α regulates HSC act...
Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) aging has become a concern in chemotherapy of older patients. Humoral and paracrine signals from the bone marrow (BM) hematopoietic microenvironment (HM) control HSC activity during regenerative hematopoiesis. Connexin-43 (Cx43), a connexin constituent of gap junctions (GJs) is expressed in HSCs, down-regulated during differentiation, and postulated to be a self-re...
Long-term hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSC) and short-term hematopoietic stem cells (ST-HSC) have been characterized as having markedly different in vivo repopulation, but similar in vitro growth in liquid culture. These differences could be due to differences in marrow homing. We evaluated this by comparing results when purified ST-HSC and LT-HSC were administered to irradiated mice by three d...
Exit from quiescence and reentry into cell cycle is essential for HSC self-renewal and regeneration. Skp2 is the F-box unit of the SCF E3-ligase that targets the CDK inhibitors (CKIs) p21(Cip1), p27(Kip1), p57(Kip2), and p130 for degradation. These CKIs inhibit the G(1) to S-phase transition of the cell cycle, and their deletion results in increased cell proliferation and decreased stem cell se...
Activated hepatic stellate cells (HSC) are the primary source of excessive production of extracellular matrix during liver fibrogenesis. Although the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood, it is widely accepted that oxidative stress plays a critical role in liver fibrogenesis. Suppression of HSC growth and activation, as well as induction of apoptosis, have been proposed as thera...
In clinical medicine, particularly in the newly developing stem cell therapies required to support the practice of regenerative medicine, the measurement of both CD34+ and CD34- hematopoietic stem cells (HSC)/hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) is important in obtaining more accurate information about the total HSC/HPC content in various stem/progenitor cell sources. We report the results of a...
Leukocytes and tumor cells use E-selectin binding ligands to attach to activated endothelial cells expressing E-selectin during inflammation or metastasis. The cysteine-rich fibroblast growth factor receptor (CFR) represents the main E-selectin ligand (ESL-1) on granulocytes and its expression is exclusively modified by alpha(1,3)-fucosyltransferases IV or VII (FucT4 and FucT7). Hepatic stellat...
PURPOSE Hepatic stellate cells (HSC) are a type of pericyte with varying characteristics according to their location. However, the electrophysiological properties of HSC are not completely understood. Therefore, this study investigated the difference in the voltage-dependent K(+) currents in HSC. MATERIALS AND METHODS The voltage-dependent K(+) currents in rat HSC were evaluated using the who...
The purpose of this study was to develop a new in vitro model of cancer invasion using a human dermal equivalent, AlloDerm®. A squamous cell carcinoma line (HSC-2, HSC-3 and OSC20) and a malignant melanoma line (G361) were cultured on AlloDerm® and evaluated histologically to examine destruction of the basement membrane and invasion into the dermis of AlloDerm®. HSC-3 and G361 cells invaded ...
Here, we report that cytokine-induced (granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and IL-8) hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) and hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) mobilization is completely inhibited after low-dose (0.5 Gy) total-body irradiation (TBI). Because neutrophil granular proteases are regulatory mediators in cytokine-induced HSC/HPC mobilization, we considered a possible role for protease i...
