In order to clarify whether cytokeratin (CK) 8/18 is a useful immunohistochemical marker for hepatocellular proliferative lesions in mice, partially hepatectomized male ICR mice were given 0.6% piperonyl butoxide (PBO) for 8 (Experiment I) or 25 weeks (Experiment II) after N-diethylnitrosamine (DEN) initiation treatment, and the livers were subjected to histological examinations on hematoxylin and eosin (HE) stained sections, CK8/18 immunohistochemistry and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) histochemistry.

Arch Toxicol. 2010 Feb;84(2):155-64. Epub 2010 Jan 26.

The incidences of cytokeratin (CK) 8/18-positive foci, adenomas, and carcinomas significantly increased in the DEN + PBO group compared with the DEN-alone group.
