Here we show that FXR is essential to promote liver repair after carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced injury.
During the early stages of liver repair after CCl4 treatment, we observed overproduction of TNFalpha and a strong decrease of phosphorylation and DNA-binding activity of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 in livers from FXR (-/-) mice.

Furthermore, a marked reduction in procollagen and TGF-beta synthesis was observed in TNFR-1 KO mice, which also had little detectable NF-kappa B, STAT3, and AP1 binding, and reduced levels of liver interleukin-6 (IL-6) mRNA compared to WT and TNFR-2 KO mice.

Activation of the signal transducer and activator of transcription factor 3 (STAT3), which promotes HO-1 expression, peaked together with plasma levels of IL-6 after i.p.

Although the level of active protein was lower, activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 still takes place in knockout mice.

Mice deficient in the OSM receptor (OSMR (-/-)) showed impaired liver regeneration with persistent parenchymal necrosis after carbon tetrachloride (CCl (4)) exposure.
The activation of STAT3 and expression of immediate early genes and cyclins were decreased in OSMR (-/-) liver, indicating that OSM signaling is required for hepatocyte proliferation and tissue remodeling during liver regeneration.

Effects of HSP90 inhibition on liver regeneration and repair were determined in a murine hepatectomy model and in a model with acute carbon tetrachloride (CCl (4))-induced liver damage.
RESULTS: Inhibition of HSP90 effectively diminished the constitutive phosphorylation of Akt, Erk, and STAT3 in PHHs.

In another model of liver regeneration induced by subcutaneous injection of carbon tetrachloride (CCl (4)), hepatocyte DNA synthesis in the CCl (4)-treated L-Stat3 (-/-) mice also decreased as compared with Stat3 (f/+) mice at 40 h after injection but not at other time points.

IL-22 messenger RNA and protein expression are significantly elevated in T cell-mediated hepatitis induced by concanavalin A (ConA) but are less extensively elevated in the carbon tetrachloride-induced liver injury model.
