Suppression of C/EBPα expression in periportal hepatoblasts may stimulate biliary cell differentiation through increased<i>Hnf6</i>and<i>Hnf1b</i>expression
5 Oct 2006
Abstract excerpt
The expression of C/EBPalpha, which may govern transcription of mature hepatocyte marker genes, was suppressed in periportal hepatoblasts in mouse liver development, leading to biliary cell differentiation. This study was undertaken to analyze how inactivation of the Cebpa gene affects biliary cell differentiation and gene expression of the regulatory genes for that differentiation, including Hnf1b and Hnf6. In...
