Effects of hepatocyte CD14 upregulation during cholestasis on endotoxin sensitivity.

Effects of hepatocyte CD14 upregulation during cholestasis on endotoxin sensitivity.

Cholestasis is frequently related to endotoxemia and inflammatory response. Our previous investigation revealed a significant increase in plasma endotoxin and CD14 levels during biliary atresia. We therefore propose that lipopolysacharides (LPS) may stimulate CD14 production in liver cells and promo...
