A focus on the role of platelets in liver regeneration: Do platelet-endothelial cell interactions initiate the regenerative process?
Abstract
Platelets are involved in the early phases of liver regeneration. Moreover, platelet transfusion and thrombocytosis were recently shown to enhance hepatocyte proliferation. However, the precise mechanisms remain elusive. This review discusses the latest updates regarding the mechanisms by which platelets stimulate liver regeneration, focusing on their interactions with liver sinusoidal endothelial cells and on their fate within the liver....
