Meanings of culture hepatocytes in inglês

PEDF and the two VEGF isoforms are synthesized by fresh and cultured hepatocytes.

The MGAT1 overexpression in cultured hepatocytes enhanced triglyceride synthesis without an increase of PPARγ expression.

These cells formed bile canaliculi sealed by tight junctions and were comparably polarized as cultured hepatocytes.

Inhibition of protein synthesis by cycloheximide in cultured hepatocytes does not prevent the induction of GLUT-1 mRNA.

Two of these, BSEP-expressed insect membrane vesicles and sandwich cultured hepatocytes, are the most commonly used assays.

Recent studies have shown the potentials of these metabolites on reducing triglycerides accumulation in cultured hepatocytes and adipocytes.

Methods: Enzyme activity, cholesterol flux and changes in gene expression levels were assessed in cultured hepatocytes treated with GBE or lovastatin.

Cultured hepatocytes were exposed to fructose and fatty acids, alone or in combination, to induce different grades of steatosis in vitro.

In the present study, treatment of cultured hepatocytes with palmitate induced fat deposition, serving as a cell model of hepatic steatosis.

These results suggest that cultured hepatocytes may be exposed to plasma for at least 20 hr with no significant reduction in liver-specific function.

In addition, treatment of cells with cycloheximide appears to stabilize the GLUT-2 mRNA, preventing the usual down-regulation of this gene in cultured hepatocytes.

Together, these results suggest that Gly482Ser mutation impairs the abilities of PGC-1a in decreasing fat deposition and in stimulating PEPCK-C expression in cultured hepatocytes.
