Zusammenfassung
Background: Acute and chronic liver diseases are frequently associated with proliferation of Hepatocytes and Hepatic stellate cells (HSC). The proliferation of immune cells in this context is poorly investigated. Sustained activation of these processes can lead to fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). E-cyclins (E1, E2) control transition into S-phase of the cell cycle and play a crucial role during carcinogenesis. Our own preliminary work demonstrated an essential role of Cyclin E1 for liver fibrogenesis and HCC development in mice. Thus Cyclin E1 could be a suitable diagnostic marker for indi…
