Pathological changes in pulmonary circulation in carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced cirrhotic mice.
Lack of an experimental model of portopulmonary hypertension (POPH) has been a major obstacle in understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the disease.We investigated the effects of CCl4-mediated cirrhosis on the pulmonary vasculature, as an initial step towards an improved understan...
