Abstract:

With the development of cell separation technique, hepatocyte transplantation becomes a hot topic; however, the application is limited by donor deficiency and immunological rejection. Microencapsulated hepatocytes contribute to the promotion and application for liver cell transplantation, for which provide a large amount of high activity and good function of liver cells. In this paper, liver cell microencapsulation technology and its progress in applications were reviewed, providing prospective way for large-scale and high-active culture in vitro and long-term cryopreservation.
