Figure 3 Cytokeratin 8/18 and sonic hedgehog protein expression in normal hepatocytes and ballooned hepatocytes. Cytokeratin 8/18 protein is diffusely expressed in normal hepatocytes but absent in ballooned hepatocytes. Conversely, sonic hedgehog protein is absent in normal hepatocytes but present in ballooned hepatocytes. A: Ballooned hepatocytes showed loss of cytokeratin 8/18 expression; B: Sonic hedgehog immunostaining highlighted ballooned hepatocytes (arrows, 100 × magnification).
