How cryopreserved human liver cells works
Problems with the limited availability of human hepatocytes for cell transplantation may be overcome by efficient cryopreservation techniques and formation of appropriate cell banking. Clinicians in academic settings have found that, following administration, human hepatocytes engraft and create new functioning liver tissue, which may provide a bridge to transplant or in some cases, eliminate the need for a liver transplant.
