00:00Cancer researchers discover new method for rapid liver regeneration.
00:05The liver, the largest solid organ, regulates blood sugar, clotting, and detoxifies the blood,
00:12performing over 500 crucial functions.
00:15Notably, it can regenerate damaged cells, highlighting the importance of liver health.
00:20However, in cases when the liver is diseased, it can often stop regenerating,
00:25which could result in major health issues.
00:28Cancer researchers have recently made a breakthrough regarding liver regeneration mechanisms
00:33that could revolutionize the treatment of liver diseases.
00:40National Cancer Research Center researchers from Spain recently discovered a vital mechanism
00:46that takes place straight after the liver experiences acute damage.
00:51Studies author, Nabal Juter, states their findings reveal a universal mechanism for liver regeneration,
00:56post-acute damage, previously linked to hepatocyte production.
01:04In response to acute liver damage, glutamate is produced by hepatocyte cells,
01:10activating immune cells that travel to the liver and stimulate regeneration.
01:15Dietary glutamate supplementation could potentially enhance recovery from liver injuries and surgeries,
01:21offering new therapeutic avenues.
