Biomechanics in liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy

Yi Wu, Ning Li, Xinyu Shu, Wang Li, Xiaoyu Zhang, Dongyuan Lu, Mian Long

Summary: The liver is a complex organ with vital functions and regenerative capacity after tissue injury. Mechanical cues play a significant role in liver regeneration, including changes in hemodynamics and mechanical forces within the liver. Understanding the mechanotransductive pathways and mechanocrine responses can contribute to a comprehensive understanding of liver regeneration. Proper adjustment of mechanical loading may serve as an effective therapy for liver injury and diseases.

Ubiquitin specific peptidase 47 contributes to liver regeneration

Yuwen Zhu, Yan Guo, Hong Liu, Anqi Zhou, Zhiwen Fan, Xi Zhu, Xiulian Miao

Summary: This study investigated the role of ubiquitin-specific peptidase 47 (USP47) in liver regeneration. The results showed that USP47 expression was up-regulated in hepatocytes isolated from mice subjected to partial hepatectomy or exposed to HGF treatment. E2F1 was identified as the primary regulator of USP47 transcription. USP47 was found to play an essential role in liver regeneration, as its inhibition impaired liver regeneration in mice and its over-expression enhanced hepatocyte proliferation in vitro and promoted liver regeneration in mice. A positive correlation between USP47 expression and hepatocyte proliferation was also observed in patients with acute liver failure.

Interplay between liver circadian rhythm and regeneration after PHx

Saisai Wei, Qiang Zheng, Yu Pan, Yunwan Xu, Jiacheng Tang, Xiujun Cai

Summary: The study revealed that liver regeneration leads to reprogramming of gene expression profiles, while core clock genes' rhythm remains stable. Performing partial hepatectomy in the evening may result in retarded liver regeneration due to the accumulation of DEC1.

Transcriptome sequencing and metabolome analysis reveal the metabolic reprogramming of partial hepatectomy and extended hepatectomy

Zeyuan Li, Bo Peng, Shilian Chen, Jiaping Li, Kai Hu, Lijuan Liao, Qiuli Xie, Mei Yao, Lixing Liang, Stephen Tomlinson, Guandou Yuan, Songqing He

Summary: This study compared the different mechanisms of liver regeneration and injury between partial hepatectomy (pHx) and extended hepatectomy (eHx) using transcriptome and metabolome analysis. The results showed that eHx caused more severe liver injury and lower survival rates compared to pHx. Analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially produced metabolites (DPMs) suggested that cholesterol metabolism and insulin resistance pathways might be important for liver regeneration and mouse survival post-PHx and -eHx.

Lack of endothelial autophagy does not impair liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy in mice

Genis Camprecios, Aina Anton, Anna Oncins, Carla Montironi, Maria Ruart, Rosa Montanes, Hector Garcia-Caldero, Joan Carles Garcia-Pagan, Virginia Hernandez-Gea

Summary: Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC) are key elements in regulating the liver response to injury and regeneration. Endothelial autophagy plays a crucial role in protecting cells from injury-induced oxidative stress and fibrosis. However, this study found that endothelial autophagy is not essential for liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy (PHx).

The effect and mechanism of highland barley beta-glucan in improving liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy

Qinhui Liu, Qin Tang, Xinchun Liu, Min Tian, Xiandan Jing, Zongyun Feng, Xuping Yang

Summary: Studies have demonstrated the positive effect of highland barley ss-glucan (HBBG) on various liver diseases, including acute liver injury and liver regeneration. In this study, the researchers investigated the beneficial impact of HBBG on liver regeneration following partial hepatectomy (PH) using mouse models. They found that HBBG promoted hepatocyte proliferation and liver regeneration after PH by activating the STAT3-CyclinD1 signaling pathway. Furthermore, the intervention of HBBG decreased hepatocyte apoptosis in a liver injury model induced by CCl4.

Summary: Key genes involved in cell cycle, DNA replication, and p53 signaling pathway were identified in the early stage of liver regeneration in mice after partial hepatectomy (PH). Ube2c was found to play a crucial role in regulating hepatocyte proliferation by modulating genes such as Ccna2, Cdkn1a, Chek1, and Mcm5.

Premature Macrophage Activation by Stored Red Blood Cell Transfusion Halts Liver Regeneration Post-Partial Hepatectomy in Rats

Nathalie Abudi, Omri Duev, Tal Asraf, Simcha Blank, Idit Matot, Rinat Abramovitch

Summary: The study investigated the impact of red blood cell (RBC) resuscitation on liver regeneration. Using rat models, it was found that transfusion of stored RBCs disrupted the regeneration process, leading to delayed hepatocyte proliferation and lack of hypertrophy. This delay was associated with elevated numbers of hemorrhage-activated liver macrophages (Mhem) secreting HO-1. Depletion of macrophages improved the regeneration process. Gene expression profiling revealed alterations in critical pathways and immune cell activation. The results suggest that activated macrophages play a role in delayed liver regeneration following stored RBC transfusion, mediated by HO-1 and PAI-1 overexpression.

Loss of liver function in chronic liver disease: An identity crisis

Summary: The identity of adult hepatocytes is established during embryonic development and regulated after birth. Transcription factors and pre-mRNA splicing regulators play a crucial role in defining the transcriptome, which determines the complex functions of the liver. Persistent downregulation of key identity genes is a major factor in chronic liver disease and organ dysfunction. Therefore, understanding the disruption of core transcription factors and splicing regulators in diseased hepatocytes is clinically important.
