| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We showed that hepatocyte survived for a long period if its is injected in the small intestine of Lewis rat. Moreover, free intestinal graft placed between portal vein and IVC is a potential transplant site for the hepatocyte, which was shown with IVIS. However, we failed to show identical results with large animal study.
