Scanning and transmission electron microscope changes in liver sinusoidal endothelial cells of monosodium methylarsonate (MSMA)-exposed rats

Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC) are the most abundant non-parenchymal hepatic cell population. Inorganic arsenic has been shown to cause LSEC structural and phenotypic disturbances that marked the early pathogenic changes of the liver. Monosodium methylarsonate (MSMA) is an organic-arsenic...
