| 1 | Effect of vitamin A on the CD44 expression in the small intestine of rats with obstructive jaundice. | Vitamin A | CD44 molecule (Indian blood group) | Rattus norvegicus |
| 2 | HYPOTHESIS: In this study, the influence of obstructive jaundice on the CD44 expression in the rat small intestine and the alterations of this CD44 expression by vitamin A given intraperitoneally (200 IU/g/day) are evaluated. | Vitamin A | CD44 molecule (Indian blood group) | Rattus norvegicus |
| 3 | When groups A and B were compared with group C (obstructive jaundice + saline) animals, the number of cells expressing surface CD44 was significantly decreased in both jejunum and ileum in group C. The difference between sham groups (A and B) and group C was found to be significant (p < 0.05). | Sodium Chloride | CD44 molecule (Indian blood group) | Rattus norvegicus |
| 4 | When group D (obstructive jaundice + vitamin A) was compared with group C (obstructive jaundice + saline), the number of cells expressing surface CD44 was significantly increased in jejunum and ileum in group D animals (p < 0.05), higher than in the sham groups (A and B). | Vitamin A | CD44 molecule (Indian blood group) | Rattus norvegicus |
| 5 | When group D (obstructive jaundice + vitamin A) was compared with group C (obstructive jaundice + saline), the number of cells expressing surface CD44 was significantly increased in jejunum and ileum in group D animals (p < 0.05), higher than in the sham groups (A and B). | Sodium Chloride | CD44 molecule (Indian blood group) | Rattus norvegicus |
| 6 | We found that daily intraperitoneal administration of vitamin A in rats with obstructive jaundice for 2 weeks significantly restored the impaired CD44 expression. | Vitamin A | CD44 molecule (Indian blood group) | Rattus norvegicus |
