Journal ArticleDOI

Recent advances in 2D and 3D in vitro systems using primary hepatocytes, alternative hepatocyte sources and non-parenchymal liver cells and their use in investigating mechanisms of hepatotoxicity, cell signaling and ADME.

Patricio Godoy, +94 more
TL;DR: This review encompasses the most important advances in liver functions and hepatotoxicity and analyzes which mechanisms can be studied in vitro and how closely hepatoma, stem cell and iPS cell–derived hepatocyte-like-cells resemble real hepatocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Mechanisms Underlying the Dedifferentiation Process of Isolated Hepatocytes and Their Cultures

TL;DR: Identification of the conditions needed for the full in vitro maturation of hepatic progenitor cells to quiescent, functional hepatocyte-like cells opens promising perspectives.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro differentiation of embryonic and adult stem cells into hepatocytes: state of the art

TL;DR: This review focuses on current strategies to differentiate embryonic, mesenchymal(‐like), and liver stem/progenitor cells into hepatocytes in vitro, and some recommendations are proposed to standardize, optimize, and enrich the in vitro production of hepatocyte‐like cells out of stem/ ProGenitor cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trichostatin A - like Hydroxamate Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors as Therapeutic Agents: Toxicological Point of View

TL;DR: The present review provides a state-of-the-art of the current knowledge of the pharmacological and toxicological effects on proliferating cells of TSA and its hydroxamate-based structural analogues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Connexin-related signaling in cell death: to live or let die?

TL;DR: Current knowledge on connexins and their channels in cell death is reviewed and the molecular mechanisms that underlie connexin-related signaling are addressed, including pannexins, a novel set of con Nexin-like proteins that have been implicated in cellular responses to pathological insults.
