Zusammenfassung
The hepatic inflammatory response is an important part of the host defence and also represents a critical regulatory event in hepatic liver regeneration. It is mainly orchestrated by a mediator based communication between the different cell types in the liver, including parenchymal cells and non-parenchymal cells, such as sessile liver macrophages (Kupffer cells). In this context, a cytokine mediated signal always depends on the background of co-acting factors and the type of target cells. In macrophages the interleukin–6 (IL–6) induced STAT3 (signal transducer and activator of transcription) activation is abrog…
