Occurrence of tubuloreticular inclusions in acute viral hepatitis. 1982

Z Schaff, and K Lapis, and S Keresztury, and Z Kolláth, and M Hérics, and I Hollós

Light and electron microscopy were used to study the liver needle-biopsy material of 20 patients with acute viral hepatitis. According to clinical and serologic data, 5 cases proved to be acute viral hepatitis type A, 13 were type B, and 2 were type non-A/non-B. In 2 of the hepatitis type A, in 6 of the hepatitis type B, and in one of the type non-A/non-B cases, tubuloreticular inclusions (TRI) were found in the endoplasmic reticulum of the sinusoidal endothelial cells of the liver. These data support the possible presumption that the inclusions represent a characteristic reaction of the endoplasmic reticulum to different influences, as for example to viral infection, rather than to the virus itself.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008099 Liver A large lobed glandular organ in the abdomen of vertebrates that is responsible for detoxification, metabolism, synthesis and storage of various substances. Livers
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

D006509 Hepatitis B INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans caused by a member of the ORTHOHEPADNAVIRUS genus, HEPATITIS B VIRUS. It is primarily transmitted by parenteral exposure, such as transfusion of contaminated blood or blood products, but can also be transmitted via sexual or intimate personal contact. Hepatitis B Virus Infection
D006525 Hepatitis, Viral, Human INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans due to infection by VIRUSES. There are several significant types of human viral hepatitis with infection caused by enteric-transmission (HEPATITIS A; HEPATITIS E) or blood transfusion (HEPATITIS B; HEPATITIS C; and HEPATITIS D).

D006526 Hepatitis C INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans caused by HEPATITIS C VIRUS, a single-stranded RNA virus. Its incubation period is 30-90 days. Hepatitis C is transmitted primarily by contaminated blood parenterally and is often associated with transfusion and intravenous drug abuse. However, in a significant number of cases, the source of hepatitis C infection is unknown.
