Cure for liver damage

US researchers say that growth of scarring leading to liver damage caused by heavy drinking or hepatitis can now be stopped by blocking the vital protein that supports its formation. Heavy alcohol use and hepatitis eventually develops liver fibrosis to potential formation of scar tissue. When scarring becomes severe it interferes with the function of the liver and results to cirrhosis. Blocking a protein called RSK will stop the formation of these scar tissues. Researchers claimed that other conditions involving fibrosis like pulmonary fibrosis and scarring around burn injuries may greatly benefit from the discovery. This is really a very promising find that may help patients with lung problems and burns. A test must be done first to safely block RSK protein to reverse liver fibrosis and allow liver cells to resume its normal function. For those who are suffering from this illness try to update yourself for any updates and developments from this blogsite to be able to try the treatment yourself.
