Self-renewing diploid Axin2+ cells fuel homeostatic renewal of the liver
Open accessAbstract
The source of new hepatocytes in the uninjured liver has remained an open question. By lineage tracing using the Wnt-responsive gene Axin2 in mice, we identify a population of proliferating and self-renewing cells adjacent to the central vein in the liver lobule. These pericentral cells express the early liver progenitor marker Tbx3, are diploid, and thereby differ from mature hepatocytes, which are mostly polyploid. The descendants of pericentral cells differentiate into Tbx3-negative, polyploid hepatocytes, and can replace all hepatocytes along the liver lobule during homeostatic renewal. Adjacent central vein endothelial cells provide Wnt signals that maintain the pericentral cells, thereby constituting the niche. Thus, we identify a cell population in the liver that subserves homeostatic hepatocyte renewal, characterize its anatomical niche, and identify molecular signals that regulate its activity.

Recent studies have demonstrated that hepatocytes are primarily maintained by the proliferation of pre-existing hepatocytes during liver homeostasis and regeneration.

From Multimodal decoding of human liver regeneration (2024) · cites this paper as [19]
The Abstract reports that earlier lineage-tracing studies found new hepatocytes arise from pre-existing hepatocytes during homeostatic renewal. This paper’s own findings concern a self-renewing pericentral population in the uninjured liver; its Discussion does not establish that proliferation of pre-existing hepatocytes primarily maintains hepatocytes during regeneration. (LLM, conf=0.87)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIn mouse and human liver, Wnt ligands are produced by endothelial cells of central vein branches and nearby sinusoids.

The Discussion reports Wnt9b expression in central-vein endothelial cells and Wnt2 expression in both central-vein and sinusoidal endothelial cells. The experiments described are in mice; our copy does not establish the same finding in human liver. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIn mouse and human liver, Wnt ligands are produced by endothelial cells of central vein branches and nearby sinusoids, creating a zonated expression pattern of Wnt target genes and key metabolic enzymes in pericentral hepatocytes.
“In the mouse and human liver, Wnt ligands are produced by endothelial cells of the central vein branches and the nearby sinusoids (McEnerney et al. 2017;Wang et al. 2015;Zhao et al. 2019), creating a zonated expression pattern of Wnt target genes and key metabolic enzymes in pericentral hepatocytes (Halpern et al. 2017).”
From Hepatocyte Cell Cycle Progression Depends on a Transcriptional Repressor Cascade Downstream of Wnt Signaling (2021) · cites this paper as Wang et al. 2015
The “Central vein endothelium acts as a Wnt-producing niche” section reports Wnt2 and Wnt9b production by central-vein endothelial cells, and the Discussion specifies that Wnt2 is also expressed in sinusoidal endothelial cells. The experiments described are in mice; these passages do not establish the claim for human liver. The later zonation clause is attributed to a different citation, not to this paper. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredTbx3 is expressed in a zonated pattern during postnatal liver growth.
“The transcriptional repressor Tbx3, a gene required for embryonic liver development (Khan et al. 2020;Ludtke et al. 2009;Suzuki et al. 2008), is also expressed in a zonated pattern during postnatal liver growth (fig.S1A) (Wang et al. 2015;Zhao et al. 2019).”
From Hepatocyte Cell Cycle Progression Depends on a Transcriptional Repressor Cascade Downstream of Wnt Signaling (2021) · cites this paper as Wang et al. 2015
The “Axin2+ cells self-renew” section reports that Tbx3 expression is confined to a single layer of pericentral cells, supporting zonated expression. The Methods identify the mice used for the Tbx3 in situ images as eight-week-old animals; the paper studies adult liver homeostasis, not expression during postnatal liver growth specifically. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredTbx3 is among the genes highly expressed in the pericentral zone.
“Among the genes highly expressed in the pericentral zone is the transcriptional repressor Tbx3 (17, 19).”

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.
