Mesenchymal stem cell infusion therapy in a carbon tetrachloride‐induced liver fibrosis model affects matrix metalloproteinase expression
Abstract
In order to investigate the effects of bone marrow‐derived MSCs (mesenchymal stem cells) in reversing liver fibrosis and to determine their possible mechanism of action, mouse MSCs were infused into the tail vein of a CCl 4 injection mouse chronic model. MSCs caused a decrease in liver fibrosis histopathologically, 4 weeks after transplantation. The reduction in liver collagen was confirmed by quantitative analysis. Moreover, lipid peroxidation in the CCl 4/MSC group decreased significantly. Quantitative RT (reverse transcription)‐PCR analysis showed administration of MSCs has a significant antifibrotic effect as evidenced by the decrease in expression of liver collagen and increase in MMP13 (matrix metalloproteinase 13) in the CCl 4/MSC group when compared with the CCl 4 group, 4 weeks after transplantation. The expression of αSMA (smooth muscle actin) and TIMP1 was also down‐regulated in the CCl 4/MSC group. Additionally, the expression of MMP9 was significantly up‐regulated in the CCl 4‐treated group; however, there was no significant change after MSC injection. Few engrafted cells in the recipient liver and were able to differentiate into albumin‐positive cells. In conclusion, MSCs can enhance recovery of a CCl 4‐injured mouse liver through their influence in reducing collagen deposition by possibly affecting expression of MMPs.

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.
