Representative serum desialylated N-glycan profiles in DENA rats. (A) Liver of untreated control rat (left) and liver of DENA treated rat showing multifocal HCC nodules. (B) The four panels (from top to bottom) are typical serum N-glycan fingerprints from control, fibrotic, cirrhotic and HCC rats. Eight major glycan peaks were detected in rat serum, and their patterns in the four rat groups showed considerable differences. The vertical axis represents the glycan values of the peaks as percent relative fluorescence level. The X-axis represents the retention time of N-glycans.
