Crosstalk between HGF and TGF-ß signaling pathways in adult liver progenitor cells and hepatocellular carcinoma cells

Chronic liver diseases (CLDs) are associated with fibrosis, which eventually progress to cirrhosis and ultimately to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development, constituting a major global health problem. In the context of chronic liver injury where the proliferative capacity of adult hepatic cells...

En este contexto de daño hepático crónico en el que la capacidad regenerativa de las células maduras hepáticas se ve comprometida, es la población de células progenitoras adultas (HPCs), también conocidas como células ovales en modelos murinos, la que va a tomar las riendas del proceso de regeneración hepática. Tras su activación, las HPCs/células ovales se expanden,proliferan y migran en el parénquima hepático y gracias a su naturaleza bipotencial se diferencian a hepatocitos y colangiocitos, compensando así la pérdida de masa hepática y manteniendo la funcionalidad hepática. Sin embargo, algunos autores dotan a las HPCs/células ovales de un papel profibrótico, estableciendo una relación directa entre su expansión y la severidad de la fibrosis. Estas células también pueden ser el origen celular de algunos subtipos de HCC. Resulta por tanto evidente la necesidad de estudiar las señales y mecanismos que regulan la biología y la función de estas células, no solo por su potencial utilidad en medicina regenerativa sino también por su papel aún no claro en las ya mencionadas enfermedades hepáticas...Universidad Complutense de MadridSánchez Muñoz, AranzazuHerrera González, Blanca MaríaUniversidad Complutense de Madrid20192019-12-1820192019-12-18doctoral thesishttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_db06info:eu-repo/semantics/doctoralThesisapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/10767reponame:Docta Complutenseinstname:Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM)Inglésengopen accesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:docta.ucm.es:20.500.14352/107672026-06-02T12:44:21Z
