Neighborhood watch orchestrates liver regeneration

Nature Medicine volume 18, pages 497–499 (2012)Cite this article

Subjects

Liver injury promotes the outgrowth of cell types that are relatively rare in healthy livers, including progenitors and stromal cells. A new study shows that the type of injury influences the cellular composition of the liver progenitor niche, which then seems to direct the fate of progenitors during regeneration (pages 572–579).
