Hepatic Stellate Cells and Liver Fibrosis (2013, neutral): “There is ample evidence that HSCs are remarkably heterogeneous in their content of retinoid, cytoskeletal phenotype, potential for activation, and even their capacity to revert to a quiescent state after liver injury resolves (45, 80, 143, 170).”
An estimation of the number of cells in the human body (2013, methodology): “41 10(10)) were calculated as 1/10 of hepatocyte cells (Geerts, 2001), while total Kupffer cells (9.”
