Effects of standardized CXRH on biochemical serum enzymes tests in CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity model. Values were expressed as mean ± S.E.M for six animals per group. , , and were significantly different compared to the control group. , , and were significantly different compared to the CCl4-treated group. Groups: I (control); II (CCl4-treated group); III (100 mg/kg silymarin treated group); IV (125 mg/kg CX treated group); V (250 mg/kg CX treated group); and VI (500 mg/kg CX treated group).
