Description:

LncHand2 is constitutively expressed in the nuclei of pericentral hepatocytes in mouse and human livers. LncHand2 knockout abrogates liver regeneration and repopulation capacity. Mechanistically, lncHand2 recruits the Ino80 remodeling complex to initiate expression of Nkx1-2 in trans, which triggers c-Met expression in hepatocytes. Finally, double knockout of Nkx1-2 and c-Met causes more severe liver injury and poorer repopulation ability. Thus lncHand2 promotes liver repopulation via initiating Nkx1-2-induced c-Met signaling. Our findings reveal that lncHand2 acts as a critical mediator to regulate liver repopulation.
