Abstract:
To investigate the protective effects of OLA-PENa on experimental hepatic injury in rats and compare it with OLA in the dose-response relationships. METHODS: Biochemical indexes and histopathological examination of hepatic injury in rats caused by toxicant chemicals [D-galactosamine (D-Galn) and CCl4] were determined. RESULTS: OLA-PENa obviously inhibited the rising of serum alanine transaminase (ALT) caused by D-Galn and CCl4 and dramatically decreased liver fat storage as well in a dose-dependent manner. Histopathological examination showed that OLA-PENa can evidently alleviate the condition of the degeneration of hepatic cells and that of necrosis. CONCLUSION: The protective effects of OLA-PENa on experimental liver injury in rats, all the mentioned effects, are more powerful than those of OLA with the same dosage.
