Human hepatocyte transplantation: current experience and future challenges
Abstract
Hepatocyte transplantation has shown potential as an additional treatment modality for certain diseases of the liver. To date, patients with liver-based metabolic disorders or acute liver failure have undergone hepatocyte transplantation in several centers around the world. Results from individual patients are promising, especially for the treatment of liver-based metabolic disorders, but the lack of controlled trials makes the interpretation of the findings difficult. The current source of isolated hepatocytes is donor organs that are unused or deemed unsuitable for liver transplantation. Hence the major challenge that this field is facing is the limited supply of donor organs that can provide good quality cells. Alternative sources of cells, including stem cells, are under investigation. This Review discusses the current bench-to-bedside issues and future challenges that need to be faced to allow the wider application of hepatocyte transplantation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
