Hepatic Mast Cells in Mice with Experimental Amyloidosis.

We studied the response of mast cells in mouse liver to experimental amyloidosis modeled by administration of aqueous solution of soy cream substitute and its correction by spontaneous dry red wine intake per os. Mast cells in mice with amyloidosis and intact mice were presented by α-ortho- and β-metachromatic non-degranulating forms. In mice with amyloidosis, the relative content of β1-metachromatic mast cells in the capsule and parenchyma of the liver was by 1.
