Effects of rapamycin on the infusion of MSCs in LR. (a) The ratio of the remaining liver weight to body weight (LW/BW) after Rap administration on each group at 24 h and 48 h after PHx (). (b) Western blotting analysis of mTOR signaling after rapamycin administration and the expression of the proliferation marker (PCNA). (c, d) ki-67 staining of liver specimens in each group and the number of ki-67-positive cells in each group (). (e) The level of TG in plasma (). (f) Oil Red O staining of liver specimens in each group at 24 h and 48 h. (g) The level of TG in liver specimens (). (h) β-Catenin staining of liver specimens (). Values represent mean ± SD. ; .
