 Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor G-CSF can be used to mobilize stem cells to the periphery and the liver tissue in patients with advanced liver disease, and could promote hepatic regeneration. Moreover, G-CSF was reported to protect patients from sepsis by restoring the function of both neutrophils and monocytes. Therefore, G-CSF therapy may be beneficial for liver regeneration in patients with ACLF induced by different causes.
