Human albumin expression was significantly increased in the livers of chimeric NOD/SCID mice treated with rhHGF after CCl₄-mediated liver injury.

In human umbilical cord blood–derived stem cell–engrafted mouse liver, the densities of the bands representing human albumin expression in RT-PCR analyses were normalized against human β2M expression in the same sample. rhHGF injection enhanced the level of human albumin expression compared with CCl₄ treatment alone. Error bars indicate SEM.
