Abstract
In studies of mice with chronic liver injury, we showed the antifibrotic effects of repeated infusions of purified HSCs. We found that HSCs promote recruitment of endogenous macrophages and neutrophils. Strategies to reduce SIP signaling and increase retention of HSCs in the liver could increase their antifibrotic activities and be developed for treatment of patients with liver fibrosis.
