Peribiliary glands are key in regeneration of the human biliary epithelium after severe bile duct injury [PDF]
Peribiliary glands (PBG) are a source of stem/progenitor cells organized in a cellular network encircling large bile ducts. Severe cholangiopathy with loss of luminal biliary epithelium has been proposed to activate PBG, resulting in cell proliferation ...
