| Abstract | Recent studies have demonstrated that hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) can mobilize following liver resection, thus contributing to the repair of hepatic damage. Aim of this study has been to determine whether the nature of the hepatic lesion (benign vs. malignant disease) can give rise to a different degree of mobilisation of HSCs. Two groups of patients were selected: the first included seven patients undergoing hepatic resection (five major and two minor) for a benign liver disease (focal nodular hyperplasia, hemangioma cavernosa, angioma, biliary adenofibroma) and the second included seven patients undergoing hepatic resection (five major and two minor) for a malignant (either primary or secondary) liver disease. White blood cell count and CD34+ (percentage and total number) at time T$_{0}$ (basal value before surgery) and at time T$_{1}$ (value on the sixth–eighth day after surgery) have been evaluated by standard methods. In the group undergoing hepatic resection for a benign liver disease, a significant increase of CD34+ cells, both in percentage (0.082 ± 0.043 vs. 0.048 ± 0,026, p = 0.041) and in absolute number (8.14 ± 5.95 vs. 3.26 ± 2.63, p = 0.018) have been documented, as opposed to the group of patients affected with a malignant liver disease, where no significant variation has been observed (CD34+ %: 0.044 ± 0.033 vs. 0.041 ± 0.031, p: n.s.; CD34+ total number: 3.52 ± 2.56 vs. 2.27 ± 2.01, p = n.s.) These results show a different bone marrow response to the surgical liver resection depending on the nature of the lesion, thus emphasizing a reduced mobilisation of HSCs in the malignant diseases. Since it has been documented that the type of the hepatic lesion can induce a different regenerative response, it has to be explained how the neoplastic lesions can negatively influence the mobilization of HSCs. It can be hypothesized that a variety of humoral factors, including stromal cell-derived factor, matrix metalloproteinases, hepatocyte growth factor and interleukin-8 can influence the process of mobilization of HSCs after liver resection surgery. These substances are also involved in the mechanisms of development and metastasising of many tumours. It is probably in this context that a reason may be found for the different mobilisation of hematopoietic stem cells, depending on the nature of the hepatic lesion treated, that was encountered in this study. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
