Israeli Scientists Develop First Genetic Atlas of Healthy Human Liver
Researchers from the Weizmann Institute of Science, in collaboration with Sheba Medical Center and the Mayo Clinic, have created the first genetic atlas of the healthy human liver. This groundbreaking study, published in Nature, maps the liver at a resolution of 2 microns, revealing a complex division of labor within the organ. The findings show that the human liver's structure and function differ significantly from other mammals, with implications for understanding diseases like fatty liver disease. The atlas provides a reference for studying liver diseases and could lead to targeted treatments.
