The rest of the alcohol can damage and destroy liver cells. The liver is very good at regenerating itself. However, in people who regularly drink too much alcohol, the damaged liver cannot ...

This regeneration occurs through the division of hepatocytes (liver cells), which respond to tissue loss by increasing their proliferation. Living liver donors typically recover well but must be ...

This manuscript offers valuable insights by identifying two distinct liver cancer subtypes through multi-omics integration and developing a robust prognostic model, validated across various datasets, ...

Cirrhosis is the severe scarring or fibrosis of the liver. It happens in the late stage of liver disease and other conditions that involve liver damage. The scarring that occurs with cirrhosis is ...

It's not something you probably think much about, but your liver is a key player in your body's digestive system. Nutrients you eat or drink, as well as medicines, passes through it. You need to ...
