Research Abstract |
This research project has revealed that the autophagy of hepatocytes play important role in energy production during liver regeneration. The impairment of autophagy induces cell cycle arrest of hepatocytes and apoptosis, dysfunction of mitochondria. Thereafter hepatocyte hypertrophy occurs and this may due to cell scenesence of hepatocytes.
