Heterogeneity of rat liver and spleen macrophages in gadolinium chloride-induced elimination and repopulation.
Blockade of phagocytosis and selective elimination of macrophages (m phi s) are generally accepted procedures for gaining knowledge about the function of m phi s in vivo. This study demonstrates that intravenous injection of gadolinium chloride (GdCl3) not only blocks phagocytosis by rat liver m phi s (Kupffer cells) but also selectively eliminates the large m phi s situated in the periportal z...
متن کاملEffect of Gadolinium Chloride on Liver Regeneration Following Thioacetamide-Induced Necrosis in Rats
Gadolinium chloride (GD) attenuates drug-induced hepatotoxicity by selectively inactivating Kupffer cells. The effect of GD was studied in reference to postnecrotic liver regeneration induced in rats by thioacetamide (TA). Rats, intravenously pretreated with a single dose of GD (0.1 mmol/Kg), were intraperitoneally injected with TA (6.6 mmol/Kg). Hepatocytes were isolated from rats at 0, 12, 24...
متن کاملCombination of sorafenib and gadolinium chloride (GdCl3) attenuates dimethylnitrosamine(DMN)-induced liver fibrosis in rats
BACKGROUND/AIMS Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (SECs), hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and Kupffer cells (KCs) are involved in the development of liver fibrosis and represent a potential therapeutic target. The therapeutic effects on liver fibrosis of sorafenib, a multiple tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and gadolinium chloride (GdCl3), which depletes KCs, were evaluated in rats. METHODS Liver f...
متن کاملGadolinium chloride blocks alcohol-dependent liver toxicity in rats treated chronically with intragastric alcohol despite the induction of CYP2E1.
Hepatic CYP2E1 is induced in several models of alcohol administration, but clinically relevant pathology is only observed in rats in a model involving the continuous intragastric administration of an ethanol-containing, corn oil-based, high-fat diet. The level of CYP2E1 correlates with the degree of liver pathology in the intragastric feeding model, which leads to the hypothesis that radical pr...
متن کاملBlockade of liver macrophages by gadolinium chloride reduces lethality in endotoxemic rats--analysis of mechanisms of lethality in endotoxemia.
We investigated the effects of gadolinium chloride (GdCl3.6H2O), which blocks phagocytosis by liver macrophages, on the mortality, blood tumor necrosis factor (TNF) levels, and hepatotoxicity in a lethal endotoxic shock rat model system [10 mg/kg body weight lipopolysaccharide (LPS) intravenously]. With administration of GdCl3, twice at 0.5 or 5 mg/kg, the survival rate 24 h after LPS injection...
