Amelioration of CCl4-Induced Hepatotoxicity in Rabbits by Lepidium sativum Seeds
Figure 7
Effect of LSS on histopathological changes of liver tissues induced by CCL4 (0.5 mL/kg i.p.). In rabbits sacrificed 5 weeks after experimental running as shown in (a) evident chronic venous congestion and feathery degeneration of hepatocytes [arrows] (HEx100), (b) steatosis (30%) in one case (HEx100), and (c) mild parenchymal inflammation [arrow] (HEx200). In rabbits sacrificed 10 weeks after experimental running as shown in (d) evident chronic venous congestion and feathery degeneration of hepatocytes [arrows] (HEx100), (e) steatosis (about 20%) and moderate parenchymal and portal inflammation (HEx100), and (f) bridging fibrosis [arrow] (HEx100).
