Phenotypic change in portal fibroblasts in biliary fibrosis.

Liver - 1 Apr 1994

Tang L, Tanaka Y, Marumo F, Sato C

Abstract excerpt

Portal fibroblasts have been considered responsible for biliary fibrosis. Since lipocytes show differentiation toward myofibroblast-like cells in hepatic fibrogenesis, we studied whether similar differentiation of portal fibroblasts could be observed in biliary fibrosis. We examined rat livers after bile duct ligation by double immunofluorescent staining of alpha-smooth-muscle actin (alpha-smA) and desmin and...
