Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Intrasplenic hepatocyte transplantation shows promise for liver disorders, with transplanted cells forming functional liver tissue in rat spleens. Clinical trials in humans show cell survival but require methods to stimulate proliferation for broader application.
