| Abstract | Background and Aim: Liver regeneration occurs after liver damage by ischaemia, hepatitis, or in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients receiving hepatic resection or liver transplantation. Understanding the molecular bases of this process will provide novel therapeutic approaches for patients with various liver diseases. Previous studies suggested the linkage between CD44, a multifunctional cell surface receptor, and liver regeneration. The detailed role of this receptor in liver regeneration, however, remained unclear. The present study aimed at elucidating the role of ... |
