Abstract

The aim of this study was to study the changes in the morphological and functional state of the liver of old laboratory animals after its resection against the background of combined transplantation of multipotentmesenchymal stromal and hematopoietic stem cells.Materials and methods. The studies were performed on old laboratory animals, male mice of the age of 16-17 months. Resection of 2/3 of the liver was performed in old laboratory mice according to the method of C. Mitchell and H. Willenbring. One hour after subtotal resection, a combined transplantation of two types of cells was performed: multipotentmesenchymal stromal cells (at a dose of 4 million cells / kg) and hematopoietic stem cells (at a dose of 330 thousand cells / kg). The experiments on obtaining the MMSC and HSC culture were performed from the placenta chorion of 10 laboratory female mice 3-4 months old, weighing 20-25 g, gestational age 18 days. Assessment of liver regeneration was carried out on days 1, 3, 7 after resection of the liver by analyzing morphometric parameters of the liver and biochemical parameters of peripheral blood.Results. Studies have shown the activation of protein synthesizing liver function in old animals, a decrease in the level of cytolysis enzymes, an increase in the activity of cellular regeneration (increase in the hepatocyte nucleus area, the number of binuclear cells) of liver regeneration after resection against the introduction of stem cells.
