[Retracted] Silymarin Accelerates Liver Regeneration after Partial Hepatectomy

Figure 7

Silymarin accelerates cell cycle from G1 phase to S phase during liver regeneration. (a) Immunofluorescence analysis of Ki-67 antibody after PHx at 6 hrs, 24 hrs, and 72 hrs and presence of silymarin treatment at 6 hrs, 24 hrs, and 72 hrs. Green points express Ki-67 stained hepatocytes. (b) Immunohistochemical staining of BrdU after PHx at 6 hrs, 24 hrs, and 72 hrs and presence of silymarin treatment at 6 hrs, 24 hrs, and 72 hrs. Yellow arrows point to positively BrdU stained hepatocytes nuclei.
