This study aimed to investigate the associations of the serial changes of serum levels of
various growth factors with liver regeneration after hepatectomy in healthy liver donors …

INTRODUCTION: To obtain better insight into the kinetics of hepatic growth factors following
partial hepatectomy for living related liver donation, we investigated the postoperative …

Hepatocyte growth factor levels in liver and blood, and post-operative liver cell proliferation in
patients with benign and malignant liver tumors after partial hepatectomy. - Abstract - Europe …

AIM: To investigate the effects of experimental partial hepatectomy and normothermic
ischemia-reperfusion damage on the time course of the expression of four different growth …

Cytokines and growth factors have prominent roles in liver regeneration. The aim of this
study was to evaluate the biological markers of liver regeneration in healthy donors …

Serum hepatocyte growth factor levels were measured in hepatectomized and
nonhepatectomized surgical patients. The levels were significantly increased and reached a …

Background/aims. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) concentrations in bile have been shown
to be useful in the early assessment of liver function after hepatectomy. The aim of the …

The factors regulating liver regeneration were studied by measuring changes in the liver
volume and serum hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) levels after hepatectomy. Changes in the …

Sensitive and reliable laboratory parameters are necessary to evaluate the degree of liver
regeneration serially in patients after partial hepatectomy for liver cancer. We evaluated the …

Objective: To investigate the potential of a series of growth factors which may be involved in
liver regeneration. Design: The concentrations of epidermal growth factor (EGF) …
