Biochemical Studies on Fatty Liver

Biochemical studies on regenerating liver.

Regenerating liver of the rat has long been recognized as a source of relatively abundant quantities of homogeneous rapidly growing tissue. Following the removal of the two largest lobes of the liver, the remaining ones, constituting about one-third of the total, enlarge to the size of the original liver in the span of a few days. The work of Higgins and Anderson (l), Brues et al. (2), and othe...

Biochemical Aspects of Fatty Liver

Fatty infiltration of the liver is a rather common lesion, and may be encountered in many different pathological conditions. Notwithstanding the fact that both morphological and chemical aspects are rather uniform, the pathogenesis may be quite different according to the nature of injury. In order to understand the different mechanisms leading to a fatty liver, one has to bear in mind the basic...

Correlated Morphometric and Biochemical Studies on the Liver Cell

The basic morphological properties of liver cells are defined in the form of a morphometric model to permit integrated quantitative characterization of functionally important parameters. Stereologic methods which allow efficient and reliable quantitative evaluation of sectioned liver tissue are presented. Material, obtained by a rigorous three-stage sampling procedure from five normal rat liver...

[Studies on treatment of fatty liver with traditional Chinese medicine].

Great progress has been made in the study of fatty liver with integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine in aspects of diagnosis, treatment and experimental study, etc. Most researches were designed to utilize diagnostic or model replicating method of western medicine to observe the effects or investigate the action mechanism of compound recipe, single Chinese herb or effective ingredi...
