Researchers have uncovered a novel molecular mechanism that allows damaged adult liver cells to regenerate, paving the way for design of drugs to boost regeneration in conditions such as cirrhosis or other chronic liver diseases where regeneration is impaired.
Regeneration mechanism discovered in mice could provide target for drugs to combat chronic liver disease
