Description générale

ImKC is a cytokine-producing immortalized Kupffer cell line that was established from transgenic mice expressing the thermolabile mutant tsA58 of the Simian virus 40 large T antigen under the control of the H-2kb promoter. Primary KC were obtained using a three step procedure: liver perfusion, centrifugal elutriation, and sorting for F4/80+ cells. ImKC were identified within the small-intermediate population of KC that maintained stable expression of F4/80, and the surface antigens CD11b, CD14 and TLR4.
Kupffer cells (KC), also known as stellate macrophages, are liver macrophages that reside in the lumen of the liver sinusoids. Kupffer cells play a critical role in maintaining liver functions including the removal of pathogens & foreign materials, antigen presentation and modulating innate immune responses. In vitro studies of Kupffer cells have been hindered by the difficulty in isolating sufficient number of primary cells and the limited lifespan of the cells in culture.

Inflammation is a defense mechanism that protects the body from infections. However, chronic inflammation causes damage to body tissues. Thus, controlling inflammation and investigating anti-inflammatory mechanisms are keys to preventing and treating inflammatory diseases, such as sepsis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Inflammation plays an important role in the pathophysiology of depression. This study aims to elucidate the antidepressant effect of baicalein, an anti-inflammatory component of a traditional Chinese herbal medicine (Scutellaria baicalensis), on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced depression-like behavior in mice, and to

Kupffer cells (KC) play a critical role in both liver physiology and the pathogenesis of various liver diseases. Isolated primary KC have a limited lifespan in culture, and due to the relatively low number obtained, limit their study in vitro.
