Figure 2 Histological assessment of livers following death or living for 15 d (original magnification, × 100, A, B; × 400, C, D, E). Hepatocellular bridged necrosis, mononuclear and lymphoid inflammatory infiltration, necrosis and hemorrhage (A) accompanied reticular fibers structures collapsing in control group (B). Increased mononuclear and lymphoid inflammatory infiltration, and necrosis in groups OAT, O3, and YC (C, D) compared with group O3 + YC (E). Inflammation and necrosis were graded on a 4-point scale (Table 1) by a blinded pathologist in 20 random high power fields per animal (n = 6 in each group), represented graphically in panels (F) errorbars: 95.00% CI and (G) errorbars: 95.00% CI. Data represent mean ± SE; aP < 0.05 vs Control.
