Ultrastructural changes in the liver of aminophenazone- and nitrite-intoxicated rats. 1980

C Crăciun, and M A Rusu

Aminophenazone and sodium nitrite were administered in male albino rats in a short (20 days) toxicological experiment. Histological and ultrastructural changes were shown in the liver, which were characteristic of cirrhotic damage: cell mitochondria, nuclei, nucleoli, RER and SER were affected. Glycogen and free ribosomes were significantly decreased. Some necrotic processes, as well as the proliferation of autolysosomes and collagen in the centrolobular zones of the liver were also observed.

D008103 Liver Cirrhosis Liver disease in which the normal microcirculation, the gross vascular anatomy, and the hepatic architecture have been variably destroyed and altered with fibrous septa surrounding regenerated or regenerating parenchymal nodules.

D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy
