Hepatocytes, as the most abundant cell type in liver, are a potent source of fibrogenic lipid peroxides in inflammatory liver diseases. Platelets are a potent source of growth factors, and are ...

This suggests these cells may be useful as new therapeutic targets for various liver conditions. The work appears in the journal Immunity. Macrophages are specialized immune cells located in every ...

Here, we report that TRAIL is constitutively expressed on murine natural killer (NK) cells in the liver and plays a substantial role in suppressing tumor metastasis. Freshly isolated NK cells ...

People with cirrhosis are at an increased risk of liver cancer. Treatment may include surgery, a liver transplant, ablation therapy (a needle or probe is used to kill cancer cells), embolization ...

the liver gears up to process a wide variety of dangerous chemicals in your bloodstream. The cells that process these toxins break them down into molecules that are less risky for your body.

For some reason, your own immune system begins to attack your liver cells, causing damage. It can lead to other disorders and even liver failure. It strikes girls and women more often than boys or ...

Lung cancer liver metastases are tumors that form in the liver from cancer cells that have broken away from the primary cancer and spread through the blood or lymphatic system. The liver is a common ...

Jan. 28, 2025 — A team of stem cell scientists have successfully used embryonic stem cell engineering to create a bi-paternal mouse -- a mouse with two male parents -- that lived until adulthood.

Jan. 28, 2025 — The latest findings on the interaction between cell death and cellular senescence in cancer and their pathophysiological significance have been ... Keeping the Steps of Cell ...

Unexpectedly, the frequency of Th17 cells was significantly decreased in the joints compared with PBMC of the same patients with RA, whereas Th1 cells were more abundant in the joints than in PBMC.

Cancer Immunol Res (2025) 13 (1): 7. A subset of Th1 cells expressing Foxp3, named Th1-Tregs, have been identified in tumors, but the mechanisms underlying their accumulation in tumors are unclear.

The liver is largely comprised of hepatocytes, but Kupffer cells, endothelial cells and hepatic stellate cells are also present. A perfusion-independent method to isolate ultrapure liver ...
