CNE decreased the liver index and the levels of AST, ALT, and MDA in rats with CCl4-induced ALI. Liver index (A), body:liver weight ratio in rats; the MDA (B), AST (C), and ALT (D) levels in liver and serum. The data are shown as mean ± SD, n = 10. #p < 0.05 compared to the control group; *p < 0.05 compared to negative group, for all figures. CNE attenuated the histopathological changes induced by CCl4 in rats with ALI (E). CNE prevented inflammation (Inline graphic), necrosis (Inline graphic), steatosis (Inline graphic), and ballooning degeneration (Inline graphic) in ALI rats. The HE staining of liver sections obtained from (a) control group; (b) negative group; (c) positive group; (d)–(f) CNE groups treated with 40, 80, and 160 mg/kg, respectively. Scale bar = 20 µm.
