Abstract: Objective To study the changes of NOS positive neurons in cortex motor area and spinal cord in rats of cirrhosis with portacaval shunts. Methods NADPH-diaphorase, fluorescence immunohistochemistry with confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM) were used. Results The number of NOS and nNOS positive neurons in cirrhosis rats with portacaval shunts decreased obviously.Conclusion Cirrhosis with portacaval shunts can influence motor neurons of cortex; NO may participate in the central nervous system changes of cirrhosis rats with portacaval shunts.;
