Outline of Final Research Achievements

The aged donor of living donor liver transplantation and aged hepatectomy for malignancy is major problem in Japan. We examined the mechanism of aged liver proliferative dysfunction focused of the relationship of hepatic stellate cell (HSC). We obtained several novel findings regarding the mechanisms for aged liver regeneration, by which aged HSC induced liver functional and regenerative insufficiency. Therefore, we must develop some possible therapeutic agents for the target of aged HSC dysfunction, and continue the study toward clinical application for aged liver regeneration.
