| More Details: |
Hepatocytes grown in a dish are immature and do not metabolize compounds as a real liver would. Here, the authors supply stem cell-derived hepatocytes with amino acids at a higher concentration than nutritionally necessary, changing the metabolism of these cells, making them more mature and useful for drug screening and toxicity studies. |
