Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is the most potent mitogen for hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) in vitro. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of the lipid-derived second messenger phosphatidic acid (PA) in mediating this effect and, in particular, to determine its interaction with t

## Abstract Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) have demonstrated a strong T‐cell inhibitory activity. In a mouse islet transplantation model, cotransplanted HSCs can protect islet allografts from rejection. The involved mechanism is not fully understood. We showed in this study that expression of tumor
