Abstract
The MCD model of 'fibrosing steatohepatitis' replicates the histologic features of human steatohepatitis, and the sequence of steatosis, inflammatory cell injury and fibrogenesis. The temporal sequence is consistent with a concept for involvement of oxidative injury in inflammatory recruitment and pathogenesis of hepatic fibrogenesis.
