Core Tip	In recent years, the role of bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) in liver regeneration has been explored in various clinical trials. Because these trials were very diverse, we conducted a descriptive overview to understand the effects of BMSC transplantation on liver histology and morphology, on laboratory parameters and prognostic scores, and finally, on clinical manifestations and quality of life. This overview suggests that the efficacy of BMSC therapy might be temporary, and therefore, repeated cycles of BMSCs could be useful to achieve a sustained benefit.
