Hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation is a key event in wound healing as well as in fibrosis development in the liver. Previously we developed a technique to induce HSC activation in slices from rat liver. Although this model provides a physiologic, multicellular milieu that is not present in current in vitro models it might still be of limited predictive value for the human situation due to species-differences. Therefore, we now aimed to evaluate the applicability of human liver slices for the study of HSC activation.
