Distinct mechanisms are believed to regulate growth of the liver during fetal development and after injury in adults, because the former relies on progenitors and the latter generally involves replication of mature hepatocytes. However, chronic liver injury in adults increases production of Hedgehog
Local immunosuppression within the liver and sex steroid changes, in both blood and tissue during liver regeneration, are well-recognized events. Dendritic cells (DC) play pivotal roles in the induction and regulation of immune responses. Their numbers are expanded markedly in vivo by fms-like tyros
Improvements in noninvasive imaging modalities are crucial for preoperative in vivo assessments of liver condition and potential for regeneration after liver resection for removal of liver tumors. To that end, an MRI study of liver regeneration in mice following partial hepatectomy is described and
Early pregnancy factor is not only a product of dividing embryonic and neoplastic cells, as demonstrated previously, but also of normal proliferating cells. Eight hours after partial hepatectomy in rats, early pregnancy factor was detected in serum. It rose to a peak by 48 hr. Neutralization of earl
