Abstract:
:To elucidate whether p21waf-1/cip-1/sdi-1 expression is associated with loss of growth potential of hepatocytes of old rats, we determined p21waf-1/cip-1/sdi-1 expression of hepatocytes from old (30 months) rats during the cell cycle in primary culture. A high level of expression of p21waf-1/cip-1/sdi-1 was detected at the G1 phase in old-rat hepatocytes, but after the S phase in young-rat hepatocytes. Consistently, the incidence of the cells positive for p21waf-1/cip-1/sdi-1 in nuclei before entering the S phase was significantly higher in old-rat hepatocytes than in young-rat hepatocytes. These results account for the loss of growth potential of old-rat hepatocytes in vitro and the marked retardation of regeneration of liver in old rats in vivo.
