Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Polarized kupffer cells (KCs) influence the immune response after liver transplantation. We report an undiscovered immune regulatory role of X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1) on immune function of kupffer cells (KCs). METHODS: Acute rejection model using rats. RESULTS: We found that suppression of XBP1s in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) -activated KCs could increase the expression of arginase-1 (Arg-1) and...
