Expression profile and functional activity of Platelet-derived growth factor-C and -D in bile duct-ligated rat livers and transdifferentiating hepatic stellate cells — Erawan Borkham‐Kamphorst (2007) | RDL Network
Expression profile and functional activity of Platelet-derived growth factor-C and -D in bile duct-ligated rat livers and transdifferentiating hepatic stellate cells
Background/Aims: We analyzed the expression of the novel identified platelet-derived growth factor-C and -D (PDGF-C, PDGF-D) in an experimental bile duct-ligated rat model and compared them to those of PDGF-A, PDGF-B and their receptors, and assessed the biological function of these novel cytokines in cultured hepatic stellate cells (HSC).
