Analysis of the sinusoidal endothelial cell organization during the developmental stage of the fetal rat liver using a sinusoidal endothelial cell specific antibody, SE-1.

The sinusoid organization during the development of fetal rat livers was studied using a SE-1 antibody, which we have previously established as a specific monoclonal antibody against rat sinusoidal endothelial cell (SEC). Expression and localization of the SE-1 antigen in the liver tissues of 13- to 21-day-old fetuses were immunofluorescently and immunoelectron microscopically examined. The first positive fluorescence was observed in the immature liver of 15-day-old fetuses. The initial positive staining was randomly distributed in the liver parenchyma and showed no direct relation to the large vessels which may be derived from the fetal vitelline veins. The positive linear staining increased in number and connected with each other during the course of development. The SE-1 staining pattern and the sinusoidal arrangement became similar to those of the adult liver after 20th day of gestation. Immunoelectron microscopically, the immature SEC showed a weak positive reaction for the SE-1 antigen at their membrane and was observed together with immature hepatocytes and hematopoietic cells in the 15-day-old fetal liver. Along with the liver development, SEC formed a sinusoid structure closely associated with hepatocytes and came to strongly express the SE-1 antigen. These results indicate that the organization of the hepatic sinusoid may start at around 15th day of the gestation and occurs randomly in the fetal liver parenchyma. It is also suggested that the expression of SE-1 antigen is possibly regulated by the intimate association with hepatocytes.
