Abstract:
Liver fibrosis/cirrhosis is an abnormal proliferative disease of connective tissue in the liver caused by multiple etiologies,with a complex pathogenesis and challenging treatment.Endogenous mesenchymal stem cell(MSC)plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of liver fibrosis;Clinical trials have shown that exogenous MSC can be used for the treatment of liver cirrhosis.This article summarizes the controversies surrounding the pathogenesis and treatment of MSC in liver fibrosis/cirrhosis,and explores the clinical application of MSC in liver cirrhosis.
