Declarations
:
: A human 21 weeks’ gestation liver, of unknown sex, was obtained with approval of the University of California at San Francisco Institutional Review Board (UCSF IRB #10–00768) in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki. Written informed consent was obtained for the donation from a woman undergoing elective abortion at San Francisco General Hospital. After the decision to have an abortion was made, the donor was offered the possibility to donate tissue for research without any benefit to themselves. Consent was obtained by clinic staff, not the researchers involved in this study, to ensure anonymity of the donor. The donor had the choice to decline donation without the choice affecting their medical treatment.
