0 the formation of too much fibrous tissue as a result of healing, inflammation, or irritation:
However, severe portal fibrosis was only noted in challenged groups.
We speculate that, earlier during development, the aorta was damaged, became inflamed and was repaired, with fibrosis obliterating the elastic tissue.
Left panel (before the operation): remarkable myocyttc hypertrophy (mean cell diameter: 19-+ 4-2ftm) and interstitial fibrosis (9c fibrous: 229c).
Necrosis was observed in the centre of the granulomata in the latter phase of infection and fibrosis was predominant after worm expulsion.
Such controversial findings could be explained indirectly as no similar study on the parasitic hepatic fibrosis model has been conducted with silymarin.
Progressive heart failure may develop and be related to left-sided abnormalities (such as excessive myocardial fibrosis) as well as right-sided abnormalities.
The ability of relaxin to decrease collagen synthesis in vitro is supported by several studies in rodent models of fibrosis.
Many fibrous nodules were noted within the valvar leaflets, while necrosis, fibrosis, and atrophy of myocardial cells were noted in the papillary muscles.
