      OBJECTIVES: Recent advances in regenerative medicine, including hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation, have brought hope for patients with severe alcoholic liver cirrhosis (ALC). The aim of this study was to assess ...

    • Oval cell proliferation in cirrhosis in rats. An experimental study 

      Tsamandas, A. C.; Antonacopoulou, A.; Kalogeropoulou, C.; Tsota, I.; Zabakis, P.; Giannopoulou, E.; Liava, A.; Tzelepi, V.; Tepetes, K.; Petsas, T.; Kardamakis, D.; Kalofonos, H. P. (2007)
      Oval cells are liver stem cells involved in liver regeneration following liver damage. Previous studies have shown that pretreatment with a hepatocyte inhibitor is required to allow full oval cell activation. This study ...

    • Oxygen-dependent secretion of a bioactive hepcidin-GFP chimera 

      Chachami, G.; Lyberopoulou, A.; Kalousi, A.; Paraskeva, E.; Pantopoulos, K.; Simos, G. (2013)
      Hepcidin, a hepatic hormone, regulates serum iron levels by controlling both intestinal iron absorption and iron release from macrophages. Although transcription of hepcidin is controlled by diverse stimuli, it remains ...

    • Serum and liver iron concentration in dogs with experimentally induced hepatopathy 

      Soubasis, N.; Rallis, T. S.; Vlemmas, J.; Adamama-Moraitou, K. K.; Roubies, N.; Prassinos, N. N.; Brellou, G. (2006)
      Background and Aim: Iron (Fe) status is altered in human and experimental animal hepatopathies. In dogs limited data are available. The aim of this study was to investigate serum iron (SI), total iron binding capacity ...
