In rats with cirrhosis, there were a decreased PaO (2) and PaCO (2) in arterial blood, markedly decreased arterial O (2) content, a significantly increased alveolar to arterial oxygen gradient, an increased number of bacterial translocated within mesenteric lymph node, a significant higher level of LPS and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in plasma, and a significant greater ratio of Tc99m-MAA brain-over-lung radioactivity.

Cells were stimulated with media alone, bovine serum albumin (Alb), or MAA-modified Alb (MAA-Alb) in the presence or absence of LPS 1 ng/ml, and the supernatants were assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for tumor necrosis factor alpha, macrophage chemotactic protein 1, and macrophage inhibitory protein.
