Differential gene expression in periportal and perivenous mouse hepatocytes
Open accessAbstract
Hepatocytes located in the periportal and perivenous zones of the liver lobule show remarkable differences in the levels and activities of various enzymes and other proteins. To analyze global gene expression patterns of periportal and perivenous hepatocytes, enriched populations of the two cell types were isolated by combined collagenase/digitonin perfusion from mouse liver and used for microarray analysis. In total, 198 genes and expressed sequences were identified that demonstrated a ≥ 2‐fold difference in expression between hepatocytes from the two different zones of the liver. A subset of 20 genes was additionally analyzed by real‐time RT‐PCR, validating the results obtained by the microarray analysis. Several of the differentially expressed genes encoded key enzymes of intermediary metabolism, including those involved in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, fatty acid degradation, cholesterol and bile acid metabolism, amino acid degradation and ammonia utilization. In addition, several enzymes of phase I and phase II of xenobiotic metabolism were differentially expressed in periportal and perivenous hepatocytes. Our results confirm previous findings on metabolic zonation in liver, and extend our knowledge of the regulatory mechanisms at the transcriptional level.

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.
