Acute-on-chronic liver failure is a distinct syndrome characterized by a rapid progression of
liver disease culminating in organ failure and death. The only definitive treatment is liver
transplantation. However, there is a possible element of reversibility and hepatic
regeneration if the acute insult can be tided over. Exogenously administered growth factors
may stimulate hepatocytes, hepatic progenitor cells and bone marrow-derived cells to
supplement hepatic regeneration. The proposed review is intended to provide an in-depth …

Abstract
Acute-on-chronic liver failure is a distinct syndrome characterized by a rapid progression of liver disease culminating in organ failure and death. The only definitive treatment is liver transplantation. However, there is a possible element of reversibility and hepatic regeneration if the acute insult can be tided over. Exogenously administered growth factors may stimulate hepatocytes, hepatic progenitor cells and bone marrow-derived cells to supplement hepatic regeneration. The proposed review is intended to provide an in-depth analysis of the individual components of hepatic and bone marrow niches and highlight the growing role of various growth factors in liver regeneration in health and in liver failure.
