Recurrent hepatitis C after liver transplantation (LT) is a major problem, since up to 30% of patients develop cirrhosis only 5 years after LT in the absence of antiviral therapy. The aim of this study was to examine the rate of progression of fibrosis and its associated risk factors in patients sub

✦ Synopsis
Whilst the role of Maturation or M-phase Promoting Factor (MPF) as a universal M-phase regulator is well documented, much less attention has been paid to its role in nuclear transplantation experiments and especially to its influence upon remodelling of transplanted nuclei. There is currently wide acceptance that successful nuclear transplantation using differentiated nuclei is possible only in a cytoplasmic environment that is capable of inducing rapid nuclear dedifferentiation to a pronuclear-like form. In this review our purpose is firstly, to outline the conditions under which such remodelling can be induced, and secondly, to extend the debate to include a consideration of whether complete Accepted nuclear remodelling is an absolute necessity for clonal development.
