Improvement of perfusion flow in the isolated rat liver under the influence of streptase. Autohistoradiographic aspects of 125I-labelled fibrinogen deposition.

The dynamics of the fibrinoplastic process were studied in rat isolated liver, perfused in normothermia with a synthetical medium. For the autohistoradiographical study, 125I-labelled fibrinogen was added to the perfusing medium. The historadiograms obtained suggest that the main link in the rise of trans-hepatic vascular resistance is thickening of the fibrin muff of the sinusoids. Consequent reduction of the capillary permeability determines favourable conditions for stasis and massive precipitation of fibrinogen under the form of fibrin thrombi into the intrahepatic vessels. Streptase addition to the perfusion medium prevents the intervention of these mechanisms during the studied period.

Protecting action of aspartate on the hepatic changes induced by D-galactosamine.

The protective action of aspartic acid on isolated and perfused rat liver was studied. In case of D-galactosamine intoxication the GOT, GPT and SDH activity and the lactate and pyruvate concentration in the perfusion medium were less augmented and the glycogen level in hepatic tissue was less diminished in animals treated with aspartic acid, as compared to controls. The histochemical applied (PAS reaction for glycogen, nucleic acids, NADH2-diaphorase, glucose-6-phosphatase and membrane-ATP-ase), also stated a protecting effect in the treated animals. The protective action of aspartate is hypothetically considered to be exerted by its capacity to reestablish the cellular deficit of pyridine nucleotides and thus to improve the synthesis of nucleic acids, glycoprotein and glycolipids or/and by its participation in various metabolic pathways.

Improvement of perfusion-flow in the isolated rat liver, under the influence of streptase.

Accumulation of radioactive material in the isolated rat liver was noted when 125I-fibrinogen was added to the perfusing medium. Owing to an enhanced production of fibrinogen and to a diminished fibrinolysis, fibrin deposits were found to occur in the capillaries of fhe isolated liver. This would cause a decrease of hepatic flow and an impairment of the nutrition of this organ which leads to subsequent necrosis. Administration of streptase removed the fibrin deposits and restored the perfusive flow in the isolated liver.

[Preservation of rat liver using prolonged perfusion with a complex solution lacking hemoglobin].

The author's aim was to investigate conservation of rat liver by continuous perfusion of the isolated organ in conditions of normal temperature, as well as in hypothermia. A complex solution was used, lacking hemoglobin. Over a period of 5 hours of conservation the authors evaluated the perfusion rate, the concentration of lactate and pyruvate in the conservation medium, while on histological preparations was investigated the formation of fibrin deposits in the intra-hepatic vessels. The results confirmed the positive effects of hypothermia, that is not due exclusively to a limiting of the metabolic necessities of the organ but also to a reduction of the fibrinogenesis and a slowing down of the formation of intra-hepatic microaggregates.
