Regulation of hepatic stellate cell phenotype and cytoglobin expression by extracellular matrix proteins
All chronic liver diseases can induce fibrosis and lead to liver cirrhosis. Within liver disease, hepatic stellate cells (HSC) are accepted as the major effectors of fibrogenesis and changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM). Cytoglobin (CYGB), a hexacoordinated globin, is upregulated in liver disea...
