The role of nerve growth factor and p75 neurotrophin receptor in recovery from liver fibrosis
Rodent hepatic myofibroblasts are susceptible to nerve growth factor-mediated apoptosis through p75 neurotrophin receptor ligation. Hepatic myofibroblast apoptosis is critical to resolution of liver fibrosis. I show that human hepatic myofibroblasts exhibit differential responses to mature and …

Insights into the role of hepatic stromal cells and the immune checkpoint protein PD-L1 in liver metastases of pancreatic cancer
… is the primary metastatic site, yet how the hepatic microenvironment influences disseminated pancreatic ductal epithelial cells (PDEC) remains unclear. While hepatic stellate cells (HSC) dominate physiological liver contexts, hepatic myofibroblasts (HMF) prevail under inflammation. Despite …
