Human parenchymal and non-parenchymal liver cell isolation, culture and characterization
Abstract
Many reports describing parenchymal liver cell isolation have been published so far. However, recent evidence has clearly demonstrated that non-parenchymal liver cells play an important role in many pathophysiologies of the liver, such as drug-induced liver diseases, inflammation, and the development of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. In this study, we present an overview of the current methods for isolating and characterizing parenchymal and non-parenchymal liver cells.

The liver is composed of non-parenchymal cells, which include hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), resident macrophages, endothelial cells (ECs), and cholangiocytes.

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.
