The premise of our study is that selective inhibition of interferon (IFN) by calcineurin inhibitors contribute to the increased severity of hepatitis C virus (HCV) posttransplantation. Therefore, we examined the influence of calcineurin inhibitors in the human hepatocyte cell line on IFN-alpha-induc

The influence of cell density and epidermal growth factor (EGF) on the expression and inducibility of cytochrome P450 (CYP) genes of the CYP3A and CYP1A families in adult human hepatocytes in primary culture has been evaluated. Only when cultured at subconfluence and in the presence of EGF did hepat
The purpose of this study is to differentiate roles of several growth factors and cytokines in proliferation and differentiation of pulp cells during development and repair. In human pulp cell cultures, laminin and type I collagen levels per cell remained almost constant during the whole culture per
The present study was designed to investigate by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction methods whether photochemotherapy (PUVA) or ultraviolet (UV) B treatment affects C3 production by interferon (IFN)-gamma-stimulated keratinocytes cultured in s
