Evaluation of safety for hepatectomy in a novel mouse model with nonalcoholic-steatohepatitis

Figure 4 Histopathological findings. A: Apoptosis was evaluated by TUNEL staining. Ratios of TUNEL-positive/total hepatocytes were calculated; B: Necrosis was evaluated by HE staining. Ratios of necrosis morphological feature/total area were calculated. Apoptosis and necrosis were higher in the NASH 70% PH group than in the other groups. Data are expressed as the mean ± SD. n = 2 per groups, 10 fields per sample. ^bP < 0.01. Scale bar: 100 μm. PH: Partial hepatectomy; NASH: Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.
