Relative organ weights and serum enzyme levels in rats with DMN-induced hepatic fibrosis (n = 10) (mean ± SD)

Group	NC	FC	FG
Liver index	3.1 ± 0.2	2.9 ± 0.2	2.8 ± 0.3
Spleen index	0.2 ± 0.03a	0.7 ± 0.1c	0.4 ± 0.1
ALT (IU/mL)	254.2 ± 26.3a	572.4 ± 83.9c	312.8 ± 29.3
AST (IU/mL)	88.2 ± 12.1a	451.2 ± 23.1c	224.4 ± 24.4

NC: Normal control group; FC: Hepatic fibrosis control group; FG: Hepatic fibrosis with green tea extract (100 mg/kg) treated group. Liver index: Liver weight/body weight × 100; Spleen index: Spleen weight/body weight × 100; ALT: Alanine aminotransferase; AST: Aspartate aminotransferase.
