Journal ArticleDOI

Selective depletion of macrophages reveals distinct, opposing roles during liver injury and repair

TL;DR: These data provide the first clear evidence that functionally distinct subpopulations of macrophages exist in the same tissue and that these macrophage play critical roles in both the injury and recovery phases of inflammatory scarring.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of spontaneous resolution of rat liver fibrosis. Hepatic stellate cell apoptosis and reduced hepatic expression of metalloproteinase inhibitors.

TL;DR: It is suggested that apoptosis of activated HSC may vitally contribute to resolution of fibrosis by acting as a mechanism for removing the cell population responsible for both producing fibrotic neomatrix and protecting this matrix from degradation via their production of TIMPs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Liver fibrosis and repair: immune regulation of wound healing in a solid organ

TL;DR: This Review focuses on recent advances in liver fibrosis research as a paradigm for wound healing in solid organs and the role of the immune system in regulating and balancing this response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Models of liver fibrosis: exploring the dynamic nature of inflammation and repair in a solid organ

TL;DR: The manner in which studies of models of liver fibrosis have contributed to the paradigm of dynamic wound healing in this solid organ is highlighted.
