title: [Dynamic study of hepatocellular pathological change and uptake rate of 125I-insulin during experimental hepatocarcinogenesis].
abstract: This study was designed to observe the hepatocellular pathological change and uptake rate of 125I-insulin during experimental hepatocarcinogenesis in rats and clarify the possible mechanism of increasing uptake of 125I-insulin. 80 SD rats were divided into 2 groups, control and experimental groups. All of the rats were given common feed, and the rats of experimental group were given extra diethylnitrosamine (DENA) 70 mg/kg each week. At 6th, 11th, 15th and 20th week after start of the experiment, 10 control and 10 experimental rats were killed 1 hour post administration of 125I-insulin by tail vein. Blood, liver, lung, spleen, kidney, muscle and bone were collected; the radioactivity was measured and calculated %ID/g. The data of 2 groups were compared and examined with t-test. All of livers were pathologically examined. The results showed all livers of control group were normal. At 6th week, the surfaces of experimental rats' livers were coarse. Hepatocellular hyperplasia was observed, 125I-insulin-uptake rate was 1.86 time as much as that of control group. At 11th week, the liver's colour became lighter than that of control group. Hyperplasia and hepatocirrhosis were observed, 125I-insulin-uptake rate was 1.50 time as much as that of control group. At 15th week, hyperplastic nodules were observed in all experimental rats' livers. Hepatomacellulae were observed in 6 rat livers. 125I-insulin-uptake rate was 1.56 time as much as that of control group. At 20th week, the livers became enlarged out of shape. There were a lot of big or small greyish white nodules in all livers. Necrosis, liquefaction and hemorrhage were observed. Hepatomacellulae were observed in all of experimental rats livers. 125I-insulin-uptake rate was 1.46 time as much as that of control group. The differences of 125I-insulin-uptake rate between experimental and control groups were significant. These results demonstrated that the liver ability of uptaking 125I-insulin increased which mainly took place during the period of hepatocellular hyperplasia, and the hepatomacellulae kept this characteristic.
