Abstract:The liver is unique in its ability to regenerate itself and thereby restore its original mass and function after injury. Nowadays, increasing evidence suggests that the granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) plays important roles in accelerating the liver regeneration process. The deep understanding of the effect of G-CSF on liver regeneration has important significance in the use of G-CSF for the treatment of patients with liver injury to accelerate the liver regeneration and improve survival. This review focuses on the mechanism of G-CSF in accelerating liver regeneration.
