浅析肝前体细胞对肝癌调控研究

摘要/Abstract

摘要： 肝脏是哺乳动物最大的实质器官,拥有极强的再生能力,以确保组织内部环境的稳态与平衡,以肝小叶为基础单位,而每个肝小叶中的肝细胞因代谢功能和基因表达的差异,展现出显著的异质性,形成了独特的肝脏代谢区室化。并且,肝脏无时无刻不面临着应激信号的冲击,这些信号不仅削弱了肝脏的再生能力,还可能进展为肝细胞癌(HCC)。鉴于肝细胞群体间存在显著异质性,不同群体的肝细胞在肝脏再生及HCC发展过程中可能扮演着不同的角色。既往研究表明,肝前体细胞在肝脏修复与肝癌进展中发挥重要作用。因此,本文将着重探讨来源于肝细胞的肝前体细胞在肝脏再生及HCC发展中的潜在作用,旨在为肝脏相关疾病的防治提供新的思路与策略。
