Liver regeneration factor belongs to the leucinezipper family of transcription factors. It was originally cloned and characterized through differential screening of a regenerating rat liver cDNA library. The mRNA for liver regeneration factor-1 is barely detectable in normal rat liver but is dramati
The effect of recombinant human hepatocyte growth factor (h-rHGF), a potent mitogen for hepatocytes, was investigated in primary cultures of human hepatocytes. Here, we describe a series of experiments to investigate the kinetics of its mitogenic action, as well as its metabolic effects on cultured
TGF-beta is a potent inhibitor of EGF-induced DNA synthesis in primary rat hepatocyte cultures. Norepinephrine (NE) was shown to modulate this inhibition of DNA synthesis. It produced a five-fold increase, from 2.8 pM to 14.4 pM, in the IDSo for TGF-beta. The effect was dose-dependent and was signif
