title: ALR and liver regeneration.
abstract: Liver possesses the capacity to restore its tissue mass and attain optimal volume in response to physical, infectious and toxic injury. The extraordinary ability of liver to regenerate is the effect of cross-talk between growth factors, cytokines, matrix components and many other factors. In this review we present recent findings and existing information about mechanisms that regulate liver growth, paying attention to augmenter of liver regeneration.
