Autocrine-controlled formation and function of tissue-like aggregates by hepatocytes in micropatterned hydrogel arrays
The liver carries out a variety of essential functions regulated in part by autocrine signaling, including hepatocyte-produced growth factors and extracellular matrix (ECM). The local concentrations of autocrine factors are governed by a balance between receptor-mediated binding at the cell surface...
