## Abstract The effects of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) on lipogenic gene mRNA expression were examined using cultured primary chicken hepatocytes. Cell samples were equilibrated to culture conditions for 24β h and then exposed to DHEA (1, 10 and 100β Β΅M) dissolved in DMSO. The expression of sterol

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
Studies were conducted to explore hormonal and nutritional factors that might be involved in the regulation of retinol-binding protein (RBP) synthesis and secretion by the liver. The studies employed primary cultures of hepatocytes from normal rats. When cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Ea
## Abstract Colonies of small hepatocytes appeared after the culture of primary adult rat hepatocytes for 4 days in serumβfree Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium containing 10 mM nicotinamide and 10 ng/ml of epidermal growth factor (EGF), acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors (FGF), hepatocyte
