Exposure of precision-cut rat liver slices to ethanol accelerates fibrogenesis.
Ethanol metabolism in the liver induces oxidative stress and altered cytokine production preceding myofibroblast activation and fibrogenic responses. The purpose of this study was to determine how ethanol affects the fibrogenic response in precision-cut liver slices (PCLS). PCLS were obtained from chow-fed male Wistar rats (200-300 g) and were cultured up to 96 h in medium, 25 mM ethanol, or 25...
متن کاملOn-line HPLC analysis system for metabolism and inhibition studies in precision-cut liver slices.
A novel approach for on-line monitoring of drug metabolism in continuously perifused, precision-cut liver slices (PCLS) in a microfluidic system has been developed using high-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection (HPLC-UV). In this approach, PCLS are incubated in a microfluidic device made of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) by continuous, single-pass perifusion with fresh medium. Tw...
متن کاملLiver fibrosis in vitro: cell culture models and precision-cut liver slices.
Chronic liver injury of various etiologies can cause liver fibrosis, which is characterized by the progressive accumulation of connective tissue in the liver. As no effective treatment for liver fibrosis is available yet, extensive research is ongoing to further study the mechanisms underlying the development of disease- or toxicity-induced liver fibrosis and to identify potential pro- or anti-...
متن کاملAn in vitro method of alcoholic liver injury using precision-cut liver slices from rats.
Alcohol abuse results in liver injury, but investigations into the mechanism(s) for this injury have been hampered by the lack of appropriate in vitro culture models in which to conduct in depth and specific studies. In order to overcome these shortcomings, we have developed the use of precision-cut liver slices (PCLS) as an in vitro culture model in which to investigate how ethanol causes alco...
متن کاملInduction of cytochrome P450 enzymes in cultured precision-cut human liver slices.
Precision-cut human liver slices obtained from 11 donors were cultured for 72 h in a defined medium (serum free Williams' medium E) supplemented with 0.1 microM insulin and 0.1 microM dexamethasone (DEX). Liver slices were treated with 50 microM concentrations of beta -naphthoflavone (BNF), lansoprazole, rifampicin (RIF), DEX and methylclofenapate and 500 microM sodium phenobarbital (NaPB). The...
