It is unclear whether similar changes occur in other forms of steatohepatitis. We therefore examined whether hepatic microvascular dysfunction occurs in fibrosing steatohepatitis induced by feeding mice a high-fat methionine- and choline-deficient (MCD) diet. Using <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">in vivo<\/jats:italic> microscopic\u2014as well as histological and electron microscopic\u2014methods, together with measurements of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), lipid content, and oxidative stress, hepatic microvascular structure and function were studied in relation to inflammatory and fibrotic changes during evolution of steatohepatitis. At 3 weeks of MCD diet intake, serum ALT was elevated and hepatic steatosis was pronounced. By 5 weeks, necroinflammatory change was noteworthy, and by 8 weeks perisinusoidal fibrosis was established. Compared with mice receiving the high-fat diet supplemented with methionine and choline (controls), levels of hepatic lipid and lipoperoxides were elevated at 3 weeks and beyond. The numbers of perfused sinusoids were significantly reduced at each time point. Enlarged, fat-laden hepatocytes together with perivascular fibrosis narrowed sinusoidal lumens, making vessels tortuous and impairing sinusoidal perfusion. At 3 and 5 weeks, MCD diet caused significant increases in phagocytic activity of macrophages in centrilobular regions. By 8 weeks, macrophage activity was less striking, but the number of leukocytes adherent to the sinusoidal lining had increased 5-fold compared with controls. <jats:underline>In conclusion<\/jats:underline>, these results are consistent with a dysfunctional hepatic microvasculature. Thus, microvascular changes may contribute to progressive liver injury in metabolic and toxic forms of steatohepatitis.
