New insights into canalicular organic anion secretion
Richard H. Moseley – 1 January 1991 – The effect of partial and complete dissipation of the membrane potential and partial depletion of cellular ATP content on the efflux of dinitrophenyl‐glutathione and oxidized glutathione was examined in hepatocytes isolated from normal and mutant (TR−) rats exhibiting defective organic anion transport.
Hepatic histological findings after transplantation for chronic hepatitis B virus infection, including a unique pattern of fibrosing cholestatic hepatitis
Susan E. Davies, Bernard C. Portmann, John G. O′grady, Peter M. Aldis, Kanchan Chaggar, Graeme J. M. Alexander, Roger Williams – 1 January 1991 – Long‐term follow‐up of 27 patients with hepatitis B virus—related chronic liver disease treated by transplantation showed that 23 had hepatitis B virus recurrence. In 13 patients late changes in the grafts were similar to those described in other series: minor abnormalities in five cases, chronic active hepatitis in five cases and non‐hepatitis B virus—related graft dysfunction in three cases. Three patients had incomplete histological follow‐up.

Kupffer cell activation and endothelial cell damage after storage of rat livers: Effects of reperfusion
Jane C. Caldwell‐Kenkel, Robert T. Currin, Yukio Tanaka, Ronald G. Thurman, John J. Lemasters – 1 January 1991 – Reperfusion injury characterized by loss of endothelial cell viability occurs after cold ischemic storage of livers for transplantation surgery. Here, ultrastructural changes in stored rat livers were examined by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. With increasing times of storage in Euro‐Collins solution (4 to 24 hr) followed by 15 min of reperfusion at 37° C, a sequence of structural alterations was observed involving endothelial and Kupffer cells.

Detection of hepatitis B virus DNA in paraffin‐embedded liver tissues in chronic hepatitis B or non‐A, non‐B hepatitis using the polymerase chain reaction
Michiko Shindo, Tadao Okuno, Ken Arai, Masayuki Matsumoto, Makoto Takeda, Kei Kashima, Mamoru Shimada, Yoshiaki Fujiwara, Yoshihiro Sokawa – 1 January 1991 – We developed a polymerase chain reaction assay for the direct detection of hepatitis B virus in paraffinembedded liver tissue and applied this assay to determine whether hepatitis B virus DNA exists in livers with chronic hepatitis non‐A, non‐B.
