[Status of cell surface of hepatocytes after exposure to carbon tetrachloride]. / Sostoianie kletochnoi poverkhnosti gepatotsitov pri deistvii chetyrekhkhloristogo ugleroda.

ABSTRACT

In order to estimate contact interactions and deformity of the surface of hepatocytes at a toxic hepatitis, produced by means of carbon tetrachloride, a morphometric analysis of ultrastructures of the contacts and retractions of the surface of hepatocytes, formed at an increased intraorganic pressure has been performed. Carbon tetrachloride produces decrease in adhesive interactions of the cellular surfaces in the area of simple connections, decrease in amount of desmosomes and results in increasing deformity of the surface of hepatocytes. These data support that there exists a universal reaction of the intercellular contacts to a damaging action.
