Liver fibrosis (LF) is the accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins due to chronic liver injury. We used two-dimensional differential in-gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) to perform a comparative analysis of cytosolic and nuclear protein patterns of nontransgenic (NTg) and HBV transgenic (Tg) mice livers at early stages of fibrosis. We identified several candidate proteins, involved in a variety of pathways, which could be used as putative biomarkers for LF early detection.

Abstract
Liver fibrosis (LF) is the accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins due to chronic liver injury. We used two-dimensional differential in-gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) to perform a comparative analysis of cytosolic and nuclear protein patterns of nontransgenic (NTg) and HBV transgenic (Tg) mice livers at early stages of fibrosis. We identified several candidate proteins, involved in a variety of pathways, which could be used as putative biomarkers for LF early detection.File in questo prodotto:
