Functional, transplantable rat liver grafts: Discarded livers have potential to be reengineered into usable replacement organs

Researchers have developed a technique that someday may allow growth of transplantable replacement livers. In a new study, the investigators describe using the structural tissue of rat livers as scaffolding for the growth of tissue regenerated from liver cells introduced through a novel reseeding process.
