  4. 17. Cytokines, alcohol metabolizing enzymes and stress-inducible ER proteins in alcoholic liver disease

    Author : Che Fang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The release of inflammatory cytokines by Kupffer cells is believed to be a key step in the pathogenesis of alcoholic liver disease (ALD). Kupffer cells are activated not only by endotoxins [lipopolysaccharides (LPS)] but also by the lipid peroxidation products generated mainly via ethanol-inducible cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) redox cycling.

  7. 20. Genome-Wide Studies of Transcriptional Regulation in Human Liver Cells by High-throughput Sequencing

    Author : Madhusudhan Reddy Bysani; Claes Wadelius; Mattias Mannervik; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ChIP-seq; Transcription factors; Alcoholic steatohepatitis; Genome-wide; GWAS; SNPs;

    Abstract : The human genome contains slightly more than 20 000 genes that are expressed in a tissue specific manner. Transcription factors play a key role in gene regulation. By mapping the transcription factor binding sites genome-wide we can understand their role in different biological processes. READ MORE
