EXTL2 (EXT-like 2), one of the three EXTL genes in the human genome that are homologous to EXT1 and EXT2, encodes an N-acetylhexosaminyltransferase. We have demonstrated that EXTL2 terminates chain elongation of GAGs (glycosaminoglycans), and thereby regulates GAG biosynthesis. The abnormal GAG biosynthesis caused by loss of EXTL2 had no effect on normal development or normal adult homoeostasis. Therefore we examined the role of EXTL2 in CCl4 (carbon tetrachloride)-induced liver failure, a model of liver disease. On the fifth day after CCl4 administration, the liver/body weight ratio was significantly smaller for EXTL2-knockout mice than for wild-type mice. Consistent with this observation, hepatocyte proliferation following CCl4 treatment was lower in EXTL2-knockout mice than in wild-type mice. EXTL2-knockout mice experienced less HGF (hepatocyte growth factor)-mediated signalling than wild-type mice specifically because GAG synthesis was altered in these mutant mice. In addition, GAG synthesis in hepatic stellate cells was up-regulated during liver repair in EXTL2-knockout mice. Taken together, the results of the present study indicated that EXTL2-mediated regulation of GAG synthesis was important to the tissue regeneration processes that follow liver injury."xsd:string |
