Micrograph of hepatocytes. (a) Control group showing typical morphology, (b) group treated with 50 mg/kg DEC (DEC), (c) CCl4 group (CCl4), and (d) CCl4 plus DEC group (CCl4 + DEC). Magnification = 100 μm. Sirius-red staining. (e) Quantification of fibrosis area (mean S.D., ). when compared with control group; when compared with DEC group; when compared with CCl4 group; when compared with CCl4 + DEC group. Collagen depositions (arrow).
