PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Some studies have suggested that stem cells can produce new liver cells. Others have implicated normal liver cells, called hepatocytes.

Detailed explanation-2: -The parenchymal cells of the most solid glandular organs such as liver and kidney are stable cells. They are capable of undergoing rapid division upon injury to the organ to replace the dead cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -However, in terms of its regenerative capacity, the pancreas is not similar to the liver. Although acinar and endocrine cells increase their division rate after injury83, 84, 85, tissue mass is not fully restored86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92.

Detailed explanation-4: -Although some patients who have a diseased portion of their liver removed are unable to regrow the tissue and end up needing a transplant. Researchers from Michigan State University believe blood clotting factor fibrinogen may be responsible.
