Methods: The recipient dipeptidyl peptidase IV knockout (DPPIV-/-) mice were divided into two groups: (1) the acute on chronic liver injury group (CCl 4/APAP group) that received CCl4 (1 ml/kg) twice a week for 4 weeks following one dose of acetaminophen (APAP), 600 mg/kg; (2) the acute liver injury group (APAP-only group) that received a single dose of APAP at 600 mg/kg. DPPIV+/+ hepatocytes were transplanted 24 h after APAP intoxication. Engraftment efficiency was evaluated at day 7 and day 14 after transplantation. The tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) mRNA expression level of Kupffer cells immediately before cell transplantation was compared between the two groups before and after lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 100 ng/ml) stimulation. Results: The number of transplanted cells and clusters in each 100× microscopic field were higher in the CCl4/APAP group at both day 7 (21.5 ± 6.3 versus 8.3 ± 4.0, p < 0.001; 14.9 ± 4.6 versus 6.6 ± 3.4, p < 0.001, respectively) and day 14 (17.3 ± 4.4 versus 10.2 ± 3.3, p = 0.001; 12.6 ± 3.2 versus 7.9 ± 1.6, p = 0.004, respectively). After LPS stimulation, the expression level of TNF-α was lower (175.7 ± 54.6 versus 465.6 ± 64.2, p = 0.002), and the increment of TNF-α expression was also less significant in the CCl4/APAP group (1.5-fold versus 6.5-fold, p = 0.014). Conclusions: Chronic liver injury desensitized Kupffer cells and reduced TNF-α expression, two results that correlated with the increased engraftment of transplanted cells. ? 2007 Soci?t?
