The diameters of the hepatic lobule vessels (interlobular veins, central veins, interlobular arteries, intralobular sinusoidal capillaries, interlobular bile ducts) were been studied 3, 7 and 28 days after shin bones fracture in CBA mice (n=30). Most pronounced changes of morphometric parameters indicative of hemodynamic disturbances, were found 3 days after the trauma. The increase of the diameter of central, interlobulat veins and sinusoidal capillaries took place, together with the decrease of the diameter of interlobular arteries, which, probably, promoted the reduction of arterial blood supply. The tendency for normalization of the diameter of interlobular veins, arteries and bile ducts was detected 28 days after the start of an experiment. However, the diameter of the central veins and sinusoidal capillaries remained significantly higher than in control group. Thus, it was found that the leg bone fracture was accompanied by the changes of morphometric parameters of the hepatic lobule, mediated by the organ response to injury.

Motivated by elastography that utilizes tissue mechanical properties as biomarkers for liver disease, with the eventual objective of quantitatively linking histopathology and bulk mechanical properties, we develop a micromechanical modeling approach to capture the effects of fat and collagen deposition in the liver. Specifically, we utilize computational homogenization to convert the microstructural changes in hepatic lobule to the effective viscoelastic modulus of the liver tissue, i.e.

Hepatic fibrosis, a degenerative liver lesion, significantly contributes to the deterioration and mortality among patients with chronic liver diseases. The condition arises from various factors including toxins, such as alcohol, infections like different types of viral hepatitis, and metabolic diseases. Currently, there are no effective treatments available for liver fibrosis.

Salinity is an important environmental factor affecting fish growth and development. To investigate the effects of salinity stress on the growth performance, tissue structures, and expression of genes related to apoptosis and immune response in large-sized channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) juveniles, an 8-week salinity stress experiment was conducted. Six salinity levels (3, 3.

Liver ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is a critical issue in clinical settings, particularly in liver transplantation and resection, leading to severe hepatocellular dysfunction and organ failure. This study investigates the role of fibrinogen and platelets in liver I/R injury, focusing on their distribution and pathophysiological impact within liver lobules. Using a mouse model, we examined the expression and localization of fibrinogen and platelets at various time points postreperfusion.
