| Research Abstract |
The present study was conducted to establish two different approaches for modifying hepatocytes. First, HGF gene transduction was conducted to isolated hepatoytes in suspension. The study showed that transplantation of HGF-transduced hepatocytes in vivo resulted in significant higher engraftment due to protection from apoptotis that occur after being transplanted in vivo. Second, hepatocyte surface modification technology was established using PEG-lipids. This modification allows hepatocytes to being coated ultra-thin polymer complexes.
