Repopulation by Endogenous Hepatocytes Does Not Reconstitute Liver Mass in Rats Treated with Retrorsine

The retrorsine (RS)-based model for massive liver repopulation was laid on the hypothesis that transplanted cells can proliferate in the recipient liver if the growth capacity of endogenous hepatocytes is persistently impaired.
