Hepatocytes

ISBN-13: 9781071625590 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023

Opis

This volume details experimental protocols to study structure and function of hepatocytes in vivo and in vitro, and for characterizing heterogeneity and plasticity of hepatocytes in healthy and in injured liver. Chapters guide readers through separating hepatocyte subfractions, characterizing the heterogeneity, novel culture systems, hepatocyte-like cells from human pluripotent stem cells, analyzing drug metabolism, monitoring protein sorting, manipulating gene expression, and methods for expanding primary hepatoblastoma and identifying hepatocellular carcinoma subtypes. Written in the format of the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, each chapter includes an introduction to the topic, lists necessary materials and reagents, includes tips on troubleshooting and known pitfalls, and step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols. Authoritative and cutting-edge, Hepatocytes: Methods and Protocols aims to provide techniques to further understand molecular mechanisms involved in the regulating hepatocyte functions and underlying liver diseases.
