Abstract:
:Modifications of hepatocyte cell surface were determined after single i.v. injection to rats of Pb(NO(3))(2) (known to induce liver hyperplasia followed by apoptosis) or GdCl(3) (known to induce proliferation of parenchymal cells and Kupffer cell depletion) or administration of GdCl(3) 24 h before Pb(NO(3))(2) injection (known to reduce hyperplasia and apoptosis induced in the parenchymal liver cells by the single Pb(NO(3))(2) injection). Rats were sacrificed at fixed times after the treatments (1, 3 and 5 days) and hepatocytes were isolated by enzymatic liver perfusion. In spite of the intracellular target of the heavy metals, signals leading to liver hyperplasia and apoptosis (with rates different for the different experimental conditions) were generated, which in turn were responsible for cell surface alteration. Increment or decrement of phosphatidylserine (PS) expression, asialoglycoprotein receptors (ASGPRs) and sugar residue expression on hepatocyte surfaces was measured in parallel with apoptosis and proliferation. When GdCl(3) was injected 24 h before Pb(NO(3))(2) injection, liver modifications were significantly reduced, thus suggesting that GdCl(3) could prevent and/or reduce liver damage.
