Abstract

Objective To study the protective effect of FGP on liver damage in mice caused by carbon tetrachloride(CCl4).Methods Carbon tetrachloride was used to make the model of chemical liver damage.The mice were randomly divided into 5 groups,10 in each:FGP(10.0 ml/kg)+CCl4,FGP(5.0 ml/kg)+CCl4,FGP(2.5 ml/kg)+CCl4,CCl4(0.12%,10 ml/kg)and the control group.The mice were treated with FGP and CCl4 by gavage and intraperitoneal injection.The biochemical and pathological examinations were conducted to observe the liver damage.Results Compared with CCl4 group,treated with FGP at 5.0 ml/kg could reduce the serum ALT activity significantly,the histopathological findings showed an obvious improvement.Conclusion FGP may have some protective effects on acute live damage caused by CCl4 in the mice.
