Recovery from Liver Failure and Fibrosis in a Rat Portacaval Anastomosis Model after Neurointermediate Pituitary Lobectomy

Figure 5

Effects of neurointermediate pituitary lobectomy (NIL), portacaval anastomosis (PCA), and PCA+NIL on the relative expression of (a) IL-1, (b) IL-10, and (c) TGF-β. (a) : IC vs. PCA, : NIL vs. PCA, and : PCA vs. PCA+NIL. (b) IC vs. PCA+NIL. (c) : IC vs. PCA+NIL. The intact control (IC) group served as reference. It was evaluated with analysis of variance test with the Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn’s post hoc values, which are expressed as the .
