Study of heteroserum-induced rat liver fibrosis model and its mechanism

Figure 1 At the end of the 3rd week, the structure of liver lobules was defined well, the portal tracts were enlarged mildly with increased ECM and proliferated mesenchymal cells. The infiltration of eosinophils was visible in these areas. HE × 200

Figure 2 PMC with larger clliptic nucleus and HSC nearby at the end of the 3rd week. EM × 5000

Figure 3 The activated HSC enlarged with organels and less lipid droplets at the end of the 3rd week. EM × 4000

Figure 4 A large quantity of collagen fibrils around the PMC and the fibroblast. EM × 8000

Figure 5 The fibrous septa inserted into and circled the pasenchyma at the end of the 10th week. VG × 40

Figure 6 IgG was diffusedly deposited in the septa and portal tracts at the end of the 15th week. Immunofluoresence × 100
