Abstract Recently, we have shown that after partial hepatectomy (PHx), an increased hepatic blood flow initiates liver growth in mice by vasodilation and mechanically-triggered release of angiocrine signals. Here, use mass spectrometry to identify a mechanically-induced signal human endothelial cells, is, myeloid-derived factor (MYDGF). We show it induces proliferation promotes survival primary hepatocytes derived from different donors two-dimensional cell culture, via activation...
