The effect of estrogen administration to cultured Armenian hamster was studied. Isolated Armenian hamster hepatocytes were cultured in RPMI medium supplemented with β€-estradiol (E 2 ). β€-estradiol treatment for 24-48 hr induced cytoplasmic inclusion bodies which by immunocytochemistry were positive

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
Hepatic bile acid concentrations are elevated in chronic cholestasis because of reduced canalicular excretion and active ileal absorption of the fraction eliminated in the gut. Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) reduces the intestinal absorption of endogenous bile acids, thereby diminishing the concentrati
The aim of this study was to test suitable culture conditions for maintaining normal cellular cytoarchitecture and inducibility of P450 enzymes in primary cultures of human hepatocytes by prototypical inducers. The selectivity and sensitivity of a sandwich culture system were determined by treating
