Study finds protein which could prevent multi-organ failure in patients with acute liver disease

NEW DELHI: Scientists have discovered a protein in the immune system, manipulating which could offer a possibility to prevent multi-organ failure in patients with severe liver injury.

Researchers explained that damage in one part of the body triggers ageing and failure in cells, which can spread to other organs.

Senescence, in which cells become tired and stop working effectively, is a common effect of ageing, but can also be triggered due to disease at any stage of life.
