Hepatic stellate cell–specific knockout of transcriptional intermediary factor 1γ aggravates liver fibrosis
8 Apr 2020
Abstract excerpt
Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) is a crucial factor in fibrosis, and transcriptional intermediary factor 1γ (TIF1γ) is a negative regulator of the TGFβ pathway; however, its role in liver fibrosis is unknown. In this study, mesenchymal stem cells derived from human embryonic stem cells (hE-MSCs) that secrete hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) were used to observe the repair of thioacetamide (TAA)-induced liver...
