Objective and Design: The aim of the present study was to characterize during acute and chronic liver injury induced by CCl4, macrophage phenotypes and whether a change in reactive oxygen intermediates (ROI) and eicosanoids production by Kupffer cells (KC) was observed.Material and Methods: Liver steato-necrosis and cirrhosis were induced in rats after 3 weeks and 9 weeks of CCl4 intoxication, respectively. Monocytes and tissue macrophages were identified by immunohistochemical study using monoclonal antibodies ED-1 and tissue macrophages using the antibody ED-2. The release of ROI and eicosanoids in response to the phorbol ester TPA (protein kinase activator) and to the calcium ionophore A23187 was assessed in cultivated cells.Results: As compared to healthy controls, livers of rats with steato-necrosis or cirrhosis exhibited a significant increase of ED-1 and ED-2 positive cells. Only KC from rats with liver steato-necrosis were found to have higher A23187, TPA + A23187 or opsonized zymosan induced ROI production than healthy controls (p < 0.01). After TPA + A23187 or opsonized zymosan stimulation, KC from both rats with steato-necrosis or cirrhosis produced more TxB2 and leukotrienes and less PGE2 as compared to healthy controls (p
