Abstract
The researches devoted to postoperative liver regeneration and influence in this process were analyzed. Liver injury is followed by hypertrophy of residual liver parenchyma. The use of various cytokines is perspective for activation, acceleration and inhibition of liver recovery. Cellular technologies in the treatment of liver diseases can affect its repair. Moreover, these methods could make unnecessary resection and transplantation of liver in certain cases. It is generally accepted that the main effect of multipotent stromal cells (MSC) in liver failure is associated with their differentiation to the cellular elements of this organ. At the same time, recent reports revealed that MSC injection to the liver is followed by their quick death, dissemination to other organs and tissues or even elimination from the organism. Regeneration of non-parenchymal structures (vascular network and bile ducts) should be considered in addition to functional recovery of liver parenchyma after resection. Clarification of indications and contraindications for MSC therapy, as well as prevention of possible complications associated with cellular technologies are required.
