pubmed:abstractText
The common bile ducts of the Wistar rats were ligated and severed, and liver biopsies were done weekly for 7 postoperative weeks. Light and electron microscopic specimens were prepared for the morphometric studies. The volume ratio of the hepatic parenchyma decline with the lapse of time after bile duct ligation. However, elevated mean sectional area of the nucleus, increased mitotic index and unchanged estimated weight of the hepatic parenchyma after biliary obstruction suggested that lost hepatocytes were compensated by regeneration. Mitochondrial swelling and curling of the cristae were noted in biliary obstruction in general. Moreover, both the number and volume ratio of the mitochondria were increased corresponding to the duration of biliary obstruction. These changes were interpreted as an adaptation process to mitochondrial dysfunction.
