Figure 3
Photomicrograph shows histopathological sections of the livers sampled from different experimental groups. (a) Normal control group shows normal liver architecture. (b) TAA control group shows proliferation of bile duct, dens fibrous septa, and collagen fibers. (c) Rat treated with TAA + silymarin shows minimal fibrous septa and collagen fibers. (d) Rat treated with TAA + 250 mg/kg of the ERZO shows minimal fibrous septa and irregular regenerating nodules. (e) Rat treated with TAA + 500 mg/kg of ERZO shows minimal fibrous septa and collagen fibers. Masson’s Trichrome stain (original magnification 10x).
