Regenerative effects of some antioxidants after liver resection

In this mini review; Our aim is to draw attention to the regenerative effects of some natural or unnatural antioxidants (as beta carotene, silymarin, resveratrol and quercetin; as lactulose, bicyclol) after liver resection and to explain the mechanisms of these effects. Here, the pathophysiology or surgical procedure of liver resection, issues such as the rate of resection, its necessity and how to decide are not included in our subject.
