Almost every human organ has a poor ability to regenerate, notable exceptions are liver, skin, gut, etc. Molecular and cellular underpinnings of liver regeneration might pave the way for novel treatments concerned with chronic liver disorder. Such treatments would eliminate the disadvantages of liver transplantation, such as a scarcity of donor organs, a lengthy waitlist, significant medical expenses, surgical complications, and the necessity for lifelong immunosuppressive medications. Advancement in the development of regenerative therapy is giving hope to those suffering from end-stage liver disorder. The regeneration process is unique, intricate, and well coordinated, which involve the interaction of numerous signaling pathways, cytokines, and growth factor. Various signaling pathways for liver regeneration are HO-1/BER pathway, Tweak/Fn14 signaling pathway, Hippo pathway, Wnt/beta-catenin pathway, Hedgehog signaling pathway, bile acids repairing pathway, serotonin (5HT) pathway, estrogen pathway, thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) pathway, insulin repairing pathway, etc. The in vitro scientific literature revealed that numerous GSK-3 β inhibitors (LY 2090314, AR-A014418, Tideglusib, Solasodine, CHIR99021, 9-ING-41, SB-216763) play an important role in stimulating the liver regeneration process. Similarly, from the above discussion, the direction is highlighted to emphasize the proposed molecular Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway which is associated with GSK-3 β inhibition for the induction of the repairing and regeneration process.
