The only currently offered curative option for many patients with primary or secondary liver tumors is the resection of hepatic tumors. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) in liver protection and regeneration after subtotal hepatectomy in rats.
In normal rat liver, Kupffer cells were unequivocally identified using peroxidase cytochemistry by light microscopy in semithin plastic sections. The Kupffer cell population was found to constitute 31% of the sinusoidal cells and by morphometry and serial sectioning, a mean absolute number of 14 to
