Liver diseases are among the most serious health problems. Liver diseases are mainly caused by toxic chemicals (certain antibiotic, paracetamol, carbon tetrachloride, aflatoxins, peroxidized oil … etc), excess consumption of alcohol, autoimmune disorder and infection. Up till now, orthotropic liver transplantation is the best effective treatment of liver diseases. However, due to the shortage of donors, high costs, the number of patients who can benefit from this modality is very limited. In recent years, cell based therapies have investigated as alternative to whole liver transplantation. Thus the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of injection of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) on the experimental liver injury with acetaminophen. |
