Assessment of liver graft function and regeneration by galactosyl-human serum albumin (99mTc-GSA) liver scintigraphy in adult living-donor liver transplantation.

14 Dec 2009 BACKGROUND: In adult living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT), the assessment of the graft functional reserve is very important. We evaluated the graft functional reserve by technetium-99m-diethylenetriaminepenta-acetic acid-galactosyl-human serum ... Read more...


CXC chemokines play a critical role in liver injury, recovery, and regeneration.

30 Aug 2009 BACKGROUND: Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a principal consideration of trauma, resectional liver surgery, and transplantation. Despite improvements in supportive care, hepatic I/R injury continues to negatively impact patient outcomes ... Read more...


Enhanced liver regeneration following changes induced by hepatocyte-specific genetic ablation of integrin-linked kinase.

30 Aug 2009 Following liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy, liver grows back precisely to its original mass and does not exceed it. The mechanism regulating this "hepatostat" is not clear and no exceptions have been found to date. Although pathways ... Read more...
