Abstract
The insufficiency of liver functions remains one of the major causes of death. The liver transplantation is the most effective method for treating severe liver diseases. The shortage of donor organs and high risk of graft rejection are the main problems for liver transplantation. Stem cells and isolated hepatocytes are the alternative means for repopulating liver after various injuries instead of liver transplantation. This review analyses achievements in therapy of liver insufficiency by means of stem cells in model experiments on animals as well as in clinical practice and also perspectives of employment of stem cells for treatment of liver insufficiency.
