| Abstract | Liver regeneration is the common mechanism whereby a patient recovers form a liver injury. In the western world, ethanol is the single most important aetiological factor associated with liver disease, and it appears crucial to determine if ethanol interferes with liver regeneration. We studied the response to a 70% hepatectomy in 240 rats receiving a nutritionally adequate diet containing 36% of their calories as ethanol for three weeks and their pair-fed controls receiving a liquid diet where ethanol is isocalorically replace with carbohydrates. Criteria of liver regeneration were: incorporation of 3H-thymidine in hepatocyte DNA (cpm/10 microgram DNA) and number of hepatocyte labelled nuclei on autoradiography per 100 high power fields. Controls displayed the usual response with peak activity of liver regeneration at 24 hours. Consumption of ethanol was associated with a statistically significant reduction of liver regeneration by both criteria for up to 72 hours after a 70% hepatectomy and delayed the peak of regenerative activity by 24 hours. This inhibiting effect was not related to the presence of alcohol in blood nor to hepatic microsomal enzyme induction by ethanol nor to widespread necrosis of hepatocytes. This effect was reversible after one week of abstinence. This impairment of liver cell renewal by ethanol may be of major significance in the severity and outcome of alcohol-related liver injury. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
