- W1588040891 abstract "Summary Objectives The murine model of Schistosoma mansoni infection is characterized by strong fibrosis and little hepatocellular injury. The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential link between hepatic schistosomiasis and bile duct injury in relation to the expression of profibrotic cytokines and fibrosis‐related genes. Methods Hepatic schistosomiasis was induced via percutaneous infection of mice with 50 S. mansoni cercariae. Markers of fibrosis including matrixmetalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue‐inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), as well as markers of bile duct injury (keratin‐19, VCAM‐1) were studied during 24 weeks after infection by RT‐PCR and immunohistochemistry. Results Liver biochemistry revealed no differences in serum transaminase and alkaline phosphatase levels in infected and uninfected mice. Total liver hydroxyproline content was increased 5‐fold ( P < 0.05) after infection. Gene expression analysis revealed MMP‐2 (12‐fold, P < 0.05) and TIMP‐1 (48‐fold, P < 0.05) up‐regulation after infection. The balance of MMP and TIMP was shifted towards TIMP. Bile ducts were engulfed by adjacent granulomas resulting in ductular proliferation (keratin‐19). VCAM‐1 expression and inflammatory infiltrates were reduced. Conclusions This study demonstrates that schistosomiasis is associated with (i) an imbalance of MMP‐2 and TIMP‐1 as key players of fibrogenesis and (ii) with secondary bile duct alterations leading to ductular proliferation possibly contributing to fibrosis." @default.
