Expression data of mesenchymal cells from mouse liver

ABSTRACT: There are a few markers available to distinguish hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), portal fibroblasts (PFs), and mesothelial cells (MCs) in the adult mouse liver. To identify genes uniquely expressed in these cells, we isolated HSCs having Vitamin A lipids by FACS based on their autofluorescence. We isolated a mixed population containing PFs and MCs as Vitamin A lipid-negative and GFP-positive cells by FACS from Collagen1a1 promoter-driven GFP transgenic mice. MCs were isolated by FACS using anti-GPM6A antibodies from adult mouse livers. PFs were isolated by FACS as Vitamin A lipid-negative, GFP-positive, and GPM6A-negative cells. We also isolated HSCs, MCs, and PFs from Collagen1a1 promoter-driven GFP transgenic mouse livers having biliary fibrosis by FACS. Biliary fibrosis was induced by bi
