Description: | TCPOBOP is a constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) agonist that induces robust hepatocyte proliferation and hepatomegaly without any liver injury or tissue loss[1]. TCPOBOP attenuates Fas-induced murine liver injury by altering Bcl-2 proteins[2]. |
Target: | Bcl-2 |
In Vivo: | TCPOBOP (oral; 3 mg/kg; 1-5 days) remarkable increases Liver weight to body weight in LW/BW ratio at 48 hours[1]. Animal Model: METfl/fl: Tam-Cre+/+ mice with a targeted deletion for exon 16 with MET KO[1] Dosage: 3 mg/kg Administration: Oral; 1, 2, 5 days Result: Increased Liver weight to body weight. |
