Research Overview
- Aging influence on Kupffer cells of healthy and diseased liver
- Onset mechanism of certain human liver disease
From hepatoblastoma to primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), liver diseases are affecting people in a variety of age groups. However, characteristics of specific immune cells across normal healthy liver and diseased livers in different age groups remains uncovered. Although KC attributes 5-10% in normal liver, and up to 40% in some diseased liver, most of its function, and its connection to other types of immune or liver cells remains unclear. Thus, research on how KC contributes to liver diseases and how they collaborate with other cells in the liver might reveal new therapeutic strategies to liver diseases.
