The Value of Circulating Nogo-B for Evaluating Hepatic Functional Reserve in Patients with Cirrhosis

Figure 1

Nogo-B is associated with Metavir fibrosis scoring. Human liver tissues were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (200x) and Nogo-B is highly expressed in cirrhotic human livers (F4) and localizes primarily in nonparenchymal cells. F0: Metavir stage 0, F2: Metavir stage F2, and F4: Metavir stage F4.
