Progression rates of ductular reaction and fibrosis in ischemia-induced liver injury. Liver tissue sections from rats with Sham operation (control), or with arterial liver ischemia at different time points after surgery, that isw day 2 (D2); weeks 1, 2, 6 (W1, 2, 6), were submitted to CK19 immunolabeling or to Sirius red staining, as shown in Figure 2. The CK19-labeled (open squares) and Sirius red-stained (closed squares) areas were measured using a computerized image analysis system and expressed as a percentage of total analyzed area. Results are means
s.d. from 10 consecutive fields; #
P<0.05 vs previous value.
