Abstract

Background & aims Interleukin 6 (IL-6) contributes via its signal transducer gp130 to the acute phase response (APR) in hepatocytes. Recent studies indicated that IL-6 is involved in the regulation of different pathophysiologic conditions of the liver. To define the IL-6-dependent intracellular pathways more specifically, we generated a hepatocyte-specific gp130 knockout mouse. Methods Hepatocyte-specific gp130-deficient mice were generated using the Cre-loxP system. Expression of the Cre recombinase was under the control of a hepatocyte-specific control element. Adult mice were challenged with IL-6, oncostatin M (OSM), and LPS. Results Cre expression started at day 10.5 postconception, and a complete deletion of gp130 in hepatocytes was found at day 14 during liver development. The adult liver of these mice showed no abnormalities; however, after IL-6 and OSM stimulation, gp130-dependent pathways (STAT3, APR gene expression) were completely blocked in the liver of these animals. Additionally, challenging hepatocyte-specific gp130 knockout animals with lipopolysaccharides (LPS) lead to an onset of acute liver injury with an increase of hepatocyte apoptosis associated with elevated tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) serum levels and reduced nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) activation in hepatocytes. Conclusions Our findings demonstrate that gp130 is of minor relevance for embryonal development of hepatocytes. However, the molecule has an essential role in controlling acu…

  • Lack of gp130 expression in hepatocytes renders animals more susceptible to injury during various pathophysiological conditions of the liver.

    “Further experiments in hepatocyte-specific knockout animals showed that lack of gp130 expression in hepatocytes renders these animals more susceptible to injury during various pathophysiological conditions of the liver (25).”

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.
