Researchers Pinpoint the Workings behind Liver Regeneration – Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News
Researchers have pinpointed the cells responsible for liver maintenance and regeneration while also identifying where they reside.
The liver is the only solid organ that uses regenerative mechanisms to ensure that the liver-to-bodyweight ratio is always at 100% of what is required for body homeostasis. When the liver is injured beyond its ability to regenerate itself, a liver transplant is needed and used to treat conditions such as liver cancer, cirrhotic liver disease, acute liver failure, and genetic liver disorders.
