16246199 Segawa D, Miura K, Goto T, Ohshima S, Mikami K, Yoneyama K, Shibuya T, Watanabe D, Kataoka E, Yoshino R, Watanabe S: Distribution and isoforms of epimorphin in carbon tetrachloride-induced acute liver injury in mice. J Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2005 Nov;20(11):1769-80.

CONCLUSIONS: Epimorphin is involved in tissue repair following a single injection of carbon tetrachloride, in which distribution and the quantity of epimorphin expression are important, particularly in maintaining hepatocyte function.

We studied the relationship between epimorphin expression and stellate cell status in carbon tetrachloride-induced acute and chronic injury to mouse liver and in mouse liver regeneration following 70% partial hepatectomy.
