PCB congener 126-induced ultrastructural alterations in the rat liver: a stereological study
Hepatocyte cytoplasmic alterations were morphometrically determined in male and female Sprague-Dawley rats fed PCB congener 126 (3,3',4,4',5-pentachlorobiphenyl) in concentrations of 0.1, 1.0, 10, 100 ppb or corn oil in diets for 13 weeks. A dose-dependent increase (P < 0.05) in the volume fraction of smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) and mitochondria was measured in the hepatocytes of the females. However, these cells of the male rats contained a significantly greater baseline volume fraction of SER compared to that in the females. Statistical differences were not detected in the volume fractions of rough endoplasmic reticulum, peroxisomes or lipid droplets of the hepatocytes in either the males or females. We conclude the increase in mitochondrial volume was a necessary cellular adaptation to meet the heightened energy demands by the SER to produce the necessary enzymes to detoxify the PCB. Morphometric analysis rather than a descriptive methodology allowed for a more accurate determination of the liver pathology induced by PCB 126. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.

PCB congener 77-induced ultrastructural alterations in the rat liver: a quantitative study
Liver alterations were estimated morphometrically in male and female Sprague-Dawley rats that were fed PCB congener 77 (3,3',4,4'-tetrachlorobiphenyl) in concentrations of 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10 ppm or corn oil in diets for 13 weeks. A dose-dependent increase in the volume of smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) and an elevation in the volume of mitochondria following administration of the highest congener concentration (10 ppm) were estimated in the female rats. Hepatocytes of the male rats contained a significantly greater baseline volume of both SER and mitochondria compared to that in the females. A statistically significant (P < 0.05) change in the volumes of either SER or mitochondria in the PCB-fed males was not revealed. The authors concluded that the increase in mitochondrial volume was probably a necessary cellular adaptation to meet the heightened energy demands required by the SER to detoxify the PCB. The use of morphometric rather than a descriptive methodology allowed for a better determination of the hepatic alterations induced by PCB 77. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.

Abstract
Although there are no randomised trials directly comparing topical chemotherapeutic agents mitomycin-C, 5-fluorouracil, and interferon-alpha2b, published studies indicate equal efficacy of these agents for treatment of non-invasive ocular surface squamous neoplasia (80%-88%). 5-Fluorouracil may be preferred, given low incidence of serious side effects and low cost to the patient.

PCB 118 induces ultrastructural alterations in the rat liver
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants that bioaccumulate in the food chain and thus pose a health risk to humans and other animals. In this study, PCB 118 was added to the diets of Sprague Dawley rats for 13 weeks in concentrations of 2, 20, 200, 2000 p.p.b. to the females and 10, 100, 1000 and 10 000 p.p.b, to the males. The chemical was dissolved in corn oil; animals that served as the control received corn oil in the diets devoid of PCB. Use of transmission electron microscopy and stereology revealed significant (P < 0.05) elevation in the mean volume fraction of smooth reticulum profiles (20 p.p.b.), peroxisomes (200, 2600 p.p.b.) and lipid droplets (2000 p.p.b.) in the females. Hepatocytes from the males exhibited a significant increase in the mean volume fraction of lipid droplets at 10 000 p.p.b. (P < 0.05). Interactions between large quantity of estrogen and the PCB probably would account for more profound alterations in the liver of female Sprague-Dawley rats than in the males.
