Amelioration of CCl4-Induced Hepatotoxicity in Rabbits by Lepidium sativum Seeds

Figure 8

Effect of LSLS on histopathological changes of liver tissues induced by CCL4 (0.5 mL/kg i.p.) and treated with LSS (200 mgs/kg bw). In rabbits sacrificed 5 weeks after experimental running as shown in (a) evident chronic venous congestion and feathery degeneration [arrow] (HEx100), (b) mild feathery degeneration and isolated vesicular steatosis [arrow] (HEx200), and (c) moderate parenchymal and portal inflammation (HEx100). In rabbits sacrificed 10 weeks after experimental running as shown in (d) regenerating hepatocytes with isolated vesicular steatosis (HEx100), (e) discrete chronic venous congestion and no steatosis (HEx400), and (f) discrete inflammatory infiltrate (HEx100).
