What do you mean? There's a lot of different conditions that can affect the liver, some have cures and some don't.

I see that one of the categories you put this question in is "HIV and AIDS" if you are asking about symptoms the liver suffers while the body is infected with HIV or AIDS, then no, there is no cure, as there is no cure for HIV or AIDS.

If you're asking in regards to cancer of the liver, then it can be treated with chemotherapy/radiation/etc.

Cirrhosis, scarring of the liver, can not be cured. You can't repair scarred tissue, however there is treatments to prevent further scaring.

Unlike the kidneys, there is no dialysis for the liver. So if the liver fails, there is no way to artificially keep it going.

Obviously these aren't all of the diseases that can affect the liver, but they are some of the main ones. If you want a more specific answer you'll have to narrow down your question.
