[Characteristics of functional and morphologic liver changes in toxic hepatitis with differing resistance to hypoxia].

Abstract

The functional and structural changes in the liver of white rats both low- and high-resistant to hypoxia, have been studied using the biochemical and morphological methods. It has been found that intensity and degree of the liver injury in experimental toxic hepatitis depend on the systemic resistance to hypoxia. The functional and morphological changes in the injured liver have been found to be less pronounced in the high-resistant rats as compared with those in the low-resistant animals.
