Objective To test serum levels of ALT,AST,ICG R15 and calculating the hepatic regeneration rate (HRR) of remnants (median lobe) on normal and cirrhosis rats,to explore the rule of the liver function and regeneration after operation and analyse the correlation. Methods Thirty male SD rats with normal and cirrhosis (induced by CCl4) were randomly selected. The two group rats were divided into 5 subgroups, including the 1st, 3rd, seveth, tenth, and fourteenth day subgroups. All of the rats were underwent ALPPS and were tested AST、ALT and ICG R15, and regeneration rate of residual liver was count. Results AST, ALT of two groups were raised after surgery, the experimental group was obviously higher than the control group, which had statistical difference. Next to the two levels were decreased gradually, the control group was normal in 7 days after surgery, while the experimental group was normal in 14 days after surgery. ICG R15 had the same change. Regeneration rate of residual liver increase gradually, but regeneration rate of the control group was faster than the experimental group. The correlation analysis showed thatthey had obvious correlation (r=0.841). The single factor linear regression analysis obtained an equation of regression: the control group was Y= -0.1647x+39.396 (X was ICG R1 5, Y was regeneration rate of residual live). Conclusion The liver function injury of the experimental group was more obvious than the control group, and the recovery of liver function was slower than the control group, too. And the liver function had correlation with liver regeneration. So the volumes of residual live could be used as an index for evaluating liver function.
