Increased toxin-induced liver injury and fibrosis in interleukin-6-deficient mice
Open accessAbstract
Interleukin-6 null (IL-6−/−) mice have impaired liver regeneration and increased liver necrosis following partial hepatectomy that is corrected with IL-6 treatment. Following acute carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4) treatment, we found that IL-6−/− mice developed increased hepatocellular injury and defective regeneration with significant blunting of signal transducer-and-activator of transcription protein 3 (STAT3) and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) activation and reduced hepatocyte DNA synthetic and mitotic responses. After CCl 4 treatment, unlike partial hepatectomy, increased hepatocyte apoptosis was noted in IL-6−/− livers. Pretreatment with IL-6 before CCl 4 reduced acute CCl 4 injury and apoptosis and accelerated regeneration in both IL-6+/+ and −/− livers. Repetitive doses of CCl 4 in the presence or absence of phenobarbital resulted in increased injury and fibrosis in IL-6 −/− compared with +/+ livers. After acute and chronic injury, IL-6−/− livers showed the protracted presence of α-smooth muscle actin associated with activated stellate cells, indicating a disturbed response in wound healing that progressed to fibrosis. These data provide evidence for an important role for IL-6 in reducing CCl 4-induced acute and chronic liver injury and fibrosis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
