Abstract:
Objective To explore the role of Extracellular signal-regulated kinase(ERK)signal transduction pathway in the mechanism of liver fibrosis via investigating the expression of ERK1 in fibrotic liver tissue of human.Methods SABC immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of ERK1 in 32 liver fibrosis and 12 normal liver tissues from Jan.2001 to Dec.2003.Results The expression of ERK1 in liver fibrotic tissues were found chiefly in hepatic stellate cells(HSC),and it presented with significantly progressive tendency for the expression of ERK1 in normal and liver fibrosis cirrhosis tissues(P
