The effect of reticuloendothelial system activation on liver regeneration after 90% hepatectomy was investigated. OK-432, a killed streptococcal preparation that increases reticuloendothelial system activity, was administered to rats before 90% partial hepatectomy. Pretreated rats showed marked impr

The role of epidermal growth factor on liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy in rats was investigated. After a 70% hepatectomy in rats, the concentration of epidermal growth factor in portal venous blood was unchanged compared with unoperated controls. However, small amounts of epidermal grow
To elucidate hepatic collagen metabolism during liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy, we measured collagen content, collagen synthesis, and collagen-degrading enzyme activity in the remnant livers of rats 3, 5, 7, and 14 days after a partial hepatectomy of 68%. Hepatic collagen synthesis was
