Title: Characteristics of heme oxygenase-1 expression in rat hepatocytes during the development of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.
Abstract: We studied heme oxygenase-1 expression in rat liver during the development of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis simulated by feeding high-fat ration for 30, 90, and 180 days. Increased number of hepatocytes synthesizing heme oxygenase-1 was demonstrated at all stages of pathology development. Herewith, the intensity of enzyme expression by individual cells was reduced on experimental day 180 during the development of liver fibrosis.
