Özet

Background. Transforming growth factor (TGF) beta is a potent inhibitor of hepatocyte DNA synthesis and liver regeneration. TGF-beta(1) expression progressively increases in obstructive jaundice. We investigated the effect of TGF-beta(1) blockage on liver regeneration in rats induced with obstructive jaundice.
