Hepatocyte mitochondria-derived danger signals directly activate hepatic stellate cells and drive progression of liver fibrosis

Progressive fibrosis is a driver of morbidity and mortality in many chronic liver diseases, but the underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. Here, the authors show that mitochondria-derived damage-associated molecular patterns are released from injured hepatocytes and can trigger fibrogeni...

Sumario:Progressive fibrosis is a driver of morbidity and mortality in many chronic liver diseases, but the underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. Here, the authors show that mitochondria-derived damage-associated molecular patterns are released from injured hepatocytes and can trigger fibrogenic activation of hepatic stellate cells.
