Box 1057 Blindern, N-0316 Oslo 3, Norway Previous studies suggest that catecholamines may be involved in the regulation of liver growth. Considerable evidence implicates a,-adrenergic mechanisms in the initiation of hepatocyte proliferation, while the role of P-adrenoceptors is less clear. We have e
Activin A, an autocrine factor produced by hepatocytes, inhibits mitogen-stimulated DNA synthesis and induces apoptotic death of cultured rat hepatocytes. Several lines of evidence indicate that norepinephrine (NE), as a comitogenic growth factor, alters the balance between growth stimulation and in
## Abstract In a previous study, we revealed that tumor necrosis factor (TNF) was secreted in mouse liver at an early phase of liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy. Here, we investigated direct actions of TNF on the in vitro DNA synthesis of adult mouse hepatocytes in primary culture. TNF e
The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of four H2 receptor antagonists, cimetidine, ranitidine, famotidine, nizatidine, and of two proton pump inhibitors, omeprazole and lansoprazole, on the mitotic response of human hepatocytes in primary culture. After plating at subconfluent density,
Although the ability of hormones and growth factors to stimulate DNA synthesis in rat hepatocytes has been investigated extensively, no such study of human hepatocytes has been reported. Here we describe a series of experiments to identify those factors that regulate human hepatocyte DNA synthesis i
