Hepatic lipid overload triggers biliary epithelial cell activation via E2Fs

Kristina Schoonjans, Johan Auwerx, Alessia Perino, Ece Yildiz, Giovanni Sorrentino, Gaby El Alam, Antoine Jalil

During severe or chronic hepatic injury, biliary epithelial cells (BECs) undergo rapid activation into proliferating progenitors, a crucial step required to establish a regenerative process known as ductular reaction (DR). While DR is a hallmark of chronic ...

L-Cell Differentiation Is Induced by Bile Acids Through GPBAR1 and Paracrine GLP-1 and Serotonin Signaling

Kristina Schoonjans, Giovanni Sorrentino

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) mimetics are effective drugs for treatment of type 2 diabetes, and there is consequently extensive interest in increasing endogenous GLP-1 secretion and L-cell abundance. Here we identify G-protein-coupled bile acid receptor ...

Mechano-modulatory synthetic niches for liver organoid derivation

Matthias Lütolf, Kristina Schoonjans, Saba Rezakhani, Ece Yildiz, Giovanni Sorrentino

The recent demonstration that primary cells from the liver can be expanded in vitro as organoids holds enormous promise for regenerative medicine and disease modelling. The use of three-dimensional (3D) cultures based on ill-defined and potentially immunog ...
