Abstract
The esterase patterns of isolated parenchymal liver cells of rats consisted of 6 bands of enzymatic activity, whereas the patterns of iron-loaded Kupffer cells showed 5 bands. Both patterns become simpler in the early prereplicative period of liver regeneration. Dukring simultaneous replication of DNA, i.e. 24 h after partial liver removal, an additional band of esterase activity appears in patterns of hepatocytes and Kupffer cells. At the moment of maximum hepatocyte mitotic rate, i.e. 36 h after partial hepatectomy, both esterase patterns lose the single band of activity again. 2 or 3 days after surgery the initial esterase patterns in hepatocytes return whereas the patterns of Kupffer cells remain incomplete.
