[Effect of triton WR 1339 on the ultrastructure of liver parenchymal and stromal cells in rats with chronic toxic hepatitis].

A preliminary injection of triton WR 1339 protectively influenced the chronic toxic CCl4-hepatitis. The ultrastructural peculiarities were close to the normal ones in hepatocytes, in addition to the increased triglyceride rejection from cells by means of autophagy. The revealed stimulation signs of pinocytosis in hepatocytes and the Kupfer cells are accompanied by the activation of the Golgi complex and, probably, by the increased protein catabolism in lysosomes. The signs of phagocytosis increase in the Kupfer cells were determined. It is supposed that the marked ultrastructural peculiarities of liver cells reflect a more effective restoration or a lesser injury under the influence of triton WR 1339.
