[Functional restructurings of the mononuclear phagocyte system in experimental liver cirrhosis].
In rats with CCl4-induced liver cirrhosis the clearance rate of colloid carbon particles was more than 2 times lower than in control animals. Simultaneously the uptake capacity of liver Kupffer calls falls. The number of phagocytizing liver macrophages decreased. Along with the diminished functional activity of liver macrophages in cirrhotic liver, the total number of lung and spleen macrophages increased 1.5-fold, with their uptake capacity increasing 10- and 3-fold, respectively. The nitroblue tetrazolium dye reduction and methacrylate particles uptake by alveolar macrophages in vitro rises. The liver, lung, spleen and peritoneal macrophages during liver fibrosis become less sensitive to zymosan stimulation. The incidence of zymosan-induced liver infiltrates decreases 50-fold, while in the lungs they do not develop at all. Such a decreased macrophage reactivity may be closely linked with progressing, poorly reversible liver fibrosis.
