- PublicationOpen AccessModification of swine serum-induced bile duct lesion in BALB/c mice by cyclophosphamide(Murcia: F. Hernández, 1990) Doi, K.; Honjo, K.; Doi, C.; Mitsuoka, T.Effects of cyclophosphamide (CY) on the antibody titer level and incidence and severity of swine serum (SS)-induced bile duct lesion (BDL) were examined. BDL induced by 0.2 m1 of SS per head twice a week for 2 weeks was characterized by hyperplasia of biliary epithelial cells, proliferation of mucous glands, and periductal infiltration of eosinophils with mild fibrosis. CY showed no significant influence on the above-mentioned parameters at the dose levels of 140 and 210 mg/kg. On the other hand, CY lowered the antibody titer level and decreased the seventy of BDL at the dose level of 280 mg/kg, and it suppressed the antibody response and BDL at the dose level of 280 X 2 mg/kg. Thus the antibody titer level and the severity of BDL were closely related each other.
