Hepatocyte transplantation [PDF]
Numerous laboratory studies have shown that hepatocyte transplantation may serve as an alternative to organ transplantation for patients with life-threatening liver disease. Because of the successes of experimental hepatocyte transplantation, institutions have attempted to use this therapy in the clinic for the treatment of a variety of hepatic ...

Hepatocyte Transplantation [PDF]
Hepatocyte transplantation (HTx) has been developed for use in liver-based metabolic disorders and in acute liver failure. Worldwide, there are around 80 patients that have been transplanted with hepatocytes. Almost all reported studies prove feasibility and safety of the procedure with short- to medium-term success.

We have read with great interest the study by Vera MC et al. on the intrasplenic transplantation of hepatocytes from donors receiving the carcinogenic drugs diethylnitrosamine (DEN) and 2-actylaminofluorene (2-AAF). The most important conclusion of the study is that there were no signs of tumor progression in the recipient liver at seven and 60 days ...

Isolated Hepatocytes versus Hepatocyte Spheroids: In Vitro Culture of Rat Hepatocytes [PDF]
The use of hepatocytes that express liver-specific functions to develop an artificial liver is promising. Unfortunately, the loss of specialized liver functions (dedifferentiation) is still a major problem. Different techniques, such as collagen entrapment, spherical multicellular aggregates (spheroids), and coculture of hepatocytes with extracellular

Recent Advances in Models of Immune-Mediated Drug-Induced Liver Injury
Hepatic inflammation is a key feature of a variety of liver diseases including drug-induced liver injury (DILI), orchestrated by the innate immune response (Kupffer cells, monocytes, neutrophils, dendritic cells) and the adaptive immune system (T cells ...

A fresh look at augmenter of liver regeneration in rats. [PDF]
Augmenter of liver regeneration (ALR) is a hepatotrophic protein originally identified by bioassay in regenerating rat and canine livers following partial hepatectomy and in the hyperplastic livers of weanling rats, but not in resting adult livers.
