View SamplesPatients who cleared HCV viremia early during therapy tended to show favorable outcomes, whereas patients who needed a longer period to clear HCV had poorer outcomes. We explored the mechanisms of treatment resistance by comparing hepatic gene expression before and during treatment
Differential interferon signaling in liver lobule and portal area cells under treatment for chronic hepatitis C.
Specimen part, Time
View SamplesOver expression of PDGF-C in mouse liver resulted in the progression of hepatic fibrosis, steatosis and the development of HCC; this mouse model closely resembles the human HCC that is frequently associated with hepatic fibrosis.
Acyclic retinoid targets platelet-derived growth factor signaling in the prevention of hepatic fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma development.
Specimen part
View SamplesThe liver may regulate glucose homeostasis by modulating the sensitivity/resistance of peripheral tissues to insulin, by way of the production of secreted proteins, termed hepatokines.
A liver-derived secretory protein, selenoprotein P, causes insulin resistance.

View SamplesBCAA were administered to atherogenic and high-fat (Ath & HF) diet-induced nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) model mice and platelet-derived growth factor C transgenic mice (Pdgf-c Tg). Liver histology, tumor incidence, and gene expression profiles were evaluated.
Branched-chain amino acids prevent hepatic fibrosis and development of hepatocellular carcinoma in a non-alcoholic steatohepatitis mouse model.

View SamplesOptimal treatment for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) has not yet been established, particularly for individuals without diabetes.
Metformin prevents and reverses inflammation in a non-diabetic mouse model of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.
Specimen part
View SamplesGan mice express Wnt1, Ptgs2, and Ptges, which develop inflammation-associated gastric tumors (Oshima et al, Gastroenterology 131: 1086, 2006). We examined the role of TNF-alpha in tumorigenesis by construction of TNF-/- Gan mice. We also examined genetic background difference in tumor phenotype by changing Gan mouse background from C57BL/6(B6) to BALB/c.
