| Core Tip |
We observed that both hypoxic and hyperoxic rat livers exhibited significantly higher frequencies of hepatic cirrhosis than untreated rat livers. We also observed that hepatic transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) expression in hyperoxic rats was significant higher than that in untreated rats, suggesting that TGF-β is involved in the acceleration of hepatic fibrosis under hyperoxic conditions. To the best of our knowledge, up-regulated TGF-β expression in the livers of cirrhotic rats exposed to hyperoxia has not been reported. |
