Exosomes from mesenchymal stem cells induce the conversion of hepatocytes into progenitor oval cells
Abstract Background We previously reported that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) possess therapeutic effects in a murine model of carbon tetrachloride-induced acute liver failure. In the study, we observed that the majority of repopulated hepatocytes were of recipient origin and were adjacent to transp...
