Zusammenfassung

Background: TGF-β is the central pro-fibrogenic cytokine in the liver. In hepatocytes, cell death by apoptosis, growth arrest by cellular senescence or contribution towards healing by epithelial-mesenchymal transition are possible outcomes. We speculate that genetic differences underlying differences in response to TGF-β signalling may be involved in predisposition to fibrosis or hepatocellular carcinoma. Aims: Our aim is to identify differences in the transcriptional response of hepatocytes from genetically distinct inbred mouse strains to TGF-β signalling. Methods: We characterised the transcriptional response…
