3. Fig. 2
The Fischer (F) 344 rat model of liver repopulation by transplanted cells using dipeptidylpeptidase IV (DPPIV) as a detection marker. Isolated cells or cell lines from wild type F344 rats are transplanted to the liver of DPPIV− mutant F344 rats via injection into the splenic pulp or infusion into the portal vein. After engraftment and proliferation, transplanted cells can be detected and their phenotype (hepatocytic or bile duct epithelial) and amount of repopulation determined by enzyme histochemistry for DPPIV. An example of histochemical detection of DPPIV+ hepatocytes and bile duct structures in the liver 1 year after transplantation of fetal liver epithelial cells from a wt F344 rat is shown in the inset.
