Sex differences in susceptibility to alcohol-induced liver injury have been observed in both humans and experimental animal models. Using a standard model of alcohol-induced fatty liver injury and microarray analysis, we have identified differential expression of hepatic genes in both sexes. The genes that exhibit differential expression are of three types: those that are changed only in male rats fed alcohol, those that change in only female rats fed alcohol, and those that change in both sexes, although not always in the same manner. Certain of the differentially expressed genes have previously been identified as participants in the induction of alcohol-induced liver injury. However, this analysis has identified a number of genes that heretofore have not been implicated in alcoholic liver injury; such genes may provide new areas of investigation into the pathogenesis of this disease.

Fetal and neonatal liver injury induced by agents circulating in maternal plasma, even though well recognized, its morphological manifestations are not yet established. As part of our studies of fetal and neonatal liver injury induced by maternal nutritional disorders, metabolic impairment and toxic agents, the effects of two anti-inflammatory steroids have been recently inves tigated.Triamcinolone and methyl prednisolone were injected each in a group of rats during pregnancy at a-dosage level of 2 mgm three times a week. Fetal liver was studied at 18 days of gestation. Litter size and weight markedly decreased than those of control rats. Stillbirths and resorption were of higher incidence in the triamcinolone group than in those given the prednisolone.
