Figure 2. Histopathological changes in the in the livers of control rats and rats treated with folic acid, tributyrin, or the combination of folic acid and tributyrin.

Figure 2

(A) Morphometric analysis of GSTP-positive foci in the livers. The numbers of GSTP-positive foci were evaluated in liver sections using a two-dimensional approach. The data are presented as an average number of foci per cm2 of the liver. (B) Cell proliferation and apoptotic cell death in the livers. PCNA-positive cells and apoptotic bodies (AB) were counted as described in “Material and methods” and labeling indices were expressed per mm2 of the liver. a - Significantly different from control rats; b –significantly different from rats treated with folic acid only; c – significantly different from rats treated with tributyrin only; n = 7, means ± S.D.
