Serious liver disease can have different consequences depending on the extent of functional hepatic compromise and the ability of undamaged hepatocytes to replicate and replace diseased parenchyma.

Adding bile acids as farnesoid X receptor agonists to the culture medium supported the growth and development of unique stem ...

These cells have holes in them called fenestrae that hepatocytes can poke through, allowing nutrients, drugs, hormones, and other small molecules to pass between the hepatocyte and the bloodstream.

However, there are still major differences between hepatocytes obtained from a liver and those obtained from stem cells.Researchers at the Leibniz Research Centre for Working Environments and ...
