Tumor Necrosis Factor Primes Hepatocytes for Dna Replication in the Rat
1 Nov 1998
Abstract excerpt
Signaling through tumor necrosis factor receptor type 1 (TNFR-1) using a pathway that involves nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and STAT3 is required for the initiation of liver regeneration.
