Résumé
Liver fibrosis, in which hepatocyte damage and inflammatory response play critical roles, is a physiological response to chronic or iterative liver injury and can progress to cirrhosis over time.

BACKGROUND
Liver fibrosis, in which hepatocyte damage and inflammatory response play critical roles, is a physiological response to chronic or iterative liver injury and can progress to cirrhosis over time. Nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a master transcription factor that regulates oxidative and xenobiotic stress responses as well as inflammation.
METHOD
To ascertain the cell-specific roles of Nrf2 in hepatocytes and myeloid lineage cells in the progression of liver fibrosis, mice lacking Nrf2 specifically in hepatocytes [Nrf2(L)-KO] and myeloid lineage cells [Nrf2(M)-KO] were generated to evaluate carbon tetrachloride (CCl
RESULTS
Nrf2-mediated antioxidant response in the liver is responsive to acute CCl
CONCLUSION
Deficiency of Nrf2 in hepatocytes sensitizes the cells to CCl
