Techniques Used:

Desmin-positive cells increase Fzd2/7 while proliferating hepatocytes increase Wnt3a and Wnt5a following acute liver injury. WT C57BL/6 J mice were challenged with CCl 4 or OO and tissues were harvested up to 72 h later. A ) Frozen liver sections were immunostained with Fzd2 or Fzd7 (green) or Desmin (red); images were quantified using Image J and co-localization of Fzd2 or Fzd7 and Desmin was determined by quantifying yellow pixels in Desmin-positive cells. B ) Integrated density of Wnt3a (red) or Wnt5a (red) expression in liver tissues. White boxes denote magnified regions demonstrating co-localized expression. N = 4–5 mice per group. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001

Mechanism of Wnt-induced HSC reprogramming during wound healing. Acute CCl 4 -induced liver injury damages pericentral hepatocytes and induces innate immune activation in the liver. Proinflammatory mediators, derived from immune cells, including TNF-α and IL-6, perform paracrine-mediated stimulation of resident parenchymal and non-parenchymal cells in the liver. Specifically, hepatocytes and Kupffer cells, in response to inflammatory stimuli, produce Wnt3a and Wnt5a in the microenvironment which in turn, signal to hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). Canonical Wnt-mediated β-catenin activation, signaling via Fzd 1, 2, and 7, drive fibrogenic gene expression leading HSC transdifferentiation to a myofibroblast phenotype to support liver regeneration following acute injury. WNT-; wingless; Fzd- frizzled receptor; LRP6 – low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6; DKK-1 – dickkopf-1; col1a1- collagen 1; α-sma- smooth muscle actin alpha; ECM – extracellular matrix
