ABSTRACT
AIM:
To study the role of injury and phenotype shift of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells in the development of portal hypertension of liver cirrhosis in rats.METHODS:
The rat liver cirrhosis model was established by peritoneal injection of dimethylnitrosamine (DMN) (at a dose of 10 mg?kg~(-1), 3 times a week, for 4 weeks). The dynamic changes of liver cirrhosis were observed at different time points (1 day, 2 days, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks and 8 weeks). The pressure of portal vein (Ppv), the expression of CD44, von Willebrand factor (vWF), endothelin-1 (ET-1) mRNA and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) mRNA, the serum hyaluronic acid (HA) content and liver ET-1 content were measured.RESULTS:
Compared with the normal control rats, CD44 positive staining was weak in the 1 day model rats, and the numbers of fenestrae of sinusoidal endothelial cells (SECs) rapidly decreased, but serum HA content rapidly increased (P
