Abstract
In experiments on rats subjected to partial hepatectomy and experimentally induced hepatitis it is shown that GM3 ganglioside of equine erythrocytes can enhance liver cell proliferation. The effect was also observed in experiments on a primary hepatocyte culturein vitro; moreover, enhancement of cell proliferation did not depend on the type of sialic acid residues.
