Abstract:
Clinically, the incidence of end-stage liver disease including decompensated cirrhosis and liver failure is high, which seriously threatens people’s health. The existing comprehensive internal medicine treatment is ineffective, and liver transplantation is still the most effective treatment method. However, the shortage of matching liver donors and other reasons constrain the development of liver transplantation, thus limiting the treatment of patients with end-stage liver disease. In recent years, domestic and foreign scholars have conducted many pre-clinical and clinical trials using a variety of cells, and have achieved certain results, providing a new method for the treatment of end-stage liver disease. This article reviews and discusses the existing problems, research status and application progress of varieties of cell therapy for end-stage liver diseases.
