In liver injury, hepatic stellate cells are considered to depart from the sinusoidal wall and accumulate in the necrotic lesion through migration and proliferation. In this study, we investigated the migratory capacity of quiescent stellate cells in vitro and analyzed the relationship with prolifera

In this study, we present a new method to obtain pure, viable, freshly isolated hepatic stellate cells. Stellate cells were purified by cell sorting using their high side scatter (SSC) of incident light. Purity of the cells was established by light and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Startin
## Abstract Ethanol may cause an increase in sinusoidal pressure accompanied by portal hypertension. Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) located in hepatic sinusoids may therefore be frequently exposed to dual stimulations of mechanical pressure and ethanol exposure in alcoholic liver injury. In this stu
