Abstract
Significant parenchymal injury is not required for liver failure to develop after extended hepatectomy. Rather, liver dysfunction after eHx results from a transient, p21-dependent block before hepatocyte division. Therefore, a deficiency in cell-cycle progression causes liver failure after extended hepatectomy and can be overcome by inhibition of p21.
