stellate cell isoforms MAT2AandMAT2beta are induced in culture-activated primary hepatic stellate cells and hepatic stellate cells from 10-day bile duct ligated rat livers. Hepatic stellate cell activation leads to a decline in intracellular S-adenosylmethionine and methyhthioadenosine levels, a drop in the S-adenosylmethionine/S-adenosylhomocysteine ratio, and global DNA hypomethylation. The decrease in S-adenosylmethionen levels is associated with lower MATII activity during activation Rattus norvegicus

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function MAT2A or MAT2beta silencing results in decreased collagen and alpha-smooth muscle actin expression and cell growth and increased apoptosis. MAT2A knockdown decreases intracellular S-adenosylmethionine levels in LX-2 cells. Activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase and phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase signaling in LX-2 cells requires the expression of MAT2 but not that of MAT2A Homo sapiens
