Regulation of Hepatic Stellate Cell Differentiation by the Neurotrophin Receptor p75 NTR

Passino, Melissa A., Adams, Ryan A., Sikorski, Shoana L., Akassoglou, Katerina·2007·Science

Abstract

Differentiation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) to extracellular matrix– and growth factor–producing cells supports liver regeneration through promotion of hepatocyte proliferation. We show that the neurotrophin receptor p75 NTR , a tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member expressed in HSCs after fibrotic and cirrhotic liver injury in humans, is a regulator of liver repair. In mice, depletion of p75 NTR exacerbated liver pathology and inhibited hepatocyte proliferation in vivo. p75 NTR –/– HSCs failed to differentiate to myofibroblasts and did not support hepatocyte proliferation. Moreover, inhibition of p75 NTR signaling to the small guanosine triphosphatase Rho resulted in impaired HSC differentiation. Our results identify signaling from p75 NTR to Rho as a mechanism for the regulation of HSC differentiation to regeneration-promoting cells that support hepatocyte proliferation in the diseased liver.

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.
