要旨:
Due to its ability regenerate, the liver is an ideal model for studying tissue repair mechanisms. Only little is known about the repair-associated changes in cellular metabolic pathways. Energy-intensive repair processes should be reflected in alterations in energy metabolism. An in vivo liver-injury model was used to generate an onset of liver tissue-repair. We assessed the extent of liver-injury and NMR-spectroscopy was used to characterize changes in energy metabolism and metabolites. Our results showed that induction of liver-regeneration was consistent with an up-regulation of the cells overall energy metabolism and a higher demand for TCA-cycle intermediates (eg. for amino-acids synthesis).
