Regulation of Liver Growth: Protooncogenes and Transforming Growth Factors

Fausto, Nelson, Mead, Janet E.·1990·Pathology Reviews • 1990

Abstract

After the fetal and postnatal growth of the liver, hepatocytes no longer proliferate actively. In adult humans and animals, hepatocytes have long life spans, ranging from 200 to 400 days or more (in the normal adult liver about 1 hepatocyte in 10,000 to 20,000 may be replicating at any one time), but it is a common observation that they divide in response to hepatic cell death or loss of liver tissue (7). Hepatocyte proliferation occurs in viral hepatitis, cirrhosis, hepatotoxic reactions, and massive liver necrosis as well as other conditions. It can be induced in experimental animals by partial hepatectomy or cell death caused by chemical agents such as carbon tetrachloride and dioxins (73, 83). In all of these cases, hepatic growth is a compensatory response to decreased liver mass or loss of cells but it is also possible to induce DNA synthesis and replication of normal liver hepatocytes. This adaptive response occurs in some types of nutritional changes and may be caused by agents such as hexachlorobenzene and organochlorine insecticides that cause minimal hepatocyte necrosis (8, 68, 72). These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.

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.
