We previously documented the presence of Telocytes (TCs) in liver and further indicated the potential roles of TCs in liver regeneration after hepatectomy. Pregnancy-induced liver growth, other than liver regeneration after hepatectomy, is a physiological hepatic adaption to meet the enhanced nutritional and metabolic demands. However, the possible roles of TCs in pregnancy-induced liver growth remain unknown.
