Methane-rich saline alleviated inflammatory responses in BDL-induced liver damage. Rats were treated via intraperitoneal administration (10 mL/kg) of MRS for 7 days after BDL. (a) F4/80 immunohistochemical staining was used for the detection of macrophage infiltration. (b) Positive rate of F4/80 cells. The levels of (c) TNF-α and (d) IL-6 were measured with commercial ELISA kits. MRS treatment reduced serum TNF-α and IL-6 concentrations (n = 10, scale bars: 20 μm. Data are shown as the mean ± SD. p < 0.05 versus the sham control group; #p < 0.01 versus the sham control group; p < 0.05 versus the MRS control group; $p < 0.01 versus the MRS control group; &p < 0.05 versus the BDL+NS group; γp < 0.01 versus the BDL+NS group).
