Effects of treatments on histopathological examination of the liver tissue: (A) liver section of control group showed normal hepatocytes. (H&E; ×40). (B) Liver section of MTX-treated group showed necrosis of hepatocytes (brown arrow), infiltration of the inflammatory cell (black arrow), and prominent cellular degeneration (H&E; ×40). (C) Liver section of mice pretreated with 100 mg/kg of VC showed slight sinusoidal dilation (arrow) with mild cellular degeneration (H&E; ×40). (D) Liver section of the group pretreated with 200 mg/kg of VC showed slight sinusoidal dilation (yellow arrow) (H&E; ×40). (E) Liver section of the group pretreated with 10 mg/kg of CUR showed hepatocyte necrosis (brown arrow), sinusoidal dilation (yellow arrow), and inflammatory cell infiltration (black arrow) (H&E; ×40). (F) Liver section of the group pretreated with 20 mg/kg of CUR showed cellular degeneration with mild infiltration of inflammatory cells (black arrow) (H&E; (×40). (G) Liver section of mice pretreated with VC and CUR showed slight inflammatory cell infiltration (black arrow), necrotic cells (brown arrow), and slight congestion (red arrow) (H&E; ×40).
