A time-course study of thioacetamide (TAA)-induced liver fibrosis in rats
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The aim is to characterize rat liver fibrosis induced by thioacetamide (TAA). To induce hepatic fibrosis, Male Sprague Dawley rats (9-12 weeks of age and 380-420 g of weight upon arrival, supplied by Beijing Vital River laboratory animal Co., Ltd.) were treated with thioacetamide (TAA). Rat liver samples were collected from five groups of rats at week 1, 2, 4, 8 and 13 after TAA (300 mg/kg) administration three times per week while five control groups receive the same volume of 0.9% normal saline. Four biological replicates were used for each group.
