B12 is a sort of protein induced by TNF-α. Used mouse partial hepatectomy(PHx) model and ribonuclease protection assay(RPA) to study the expression of B12 after the surgical removal of the liver at different recovery time-points. The results showed that 28 h after PHx, the expression of B12 began to increase, and the trend of increasing prolonged to 36 h after PHx. These suggest that B12 might be involved in DNA replication in liver regeneratio...
