title: [The action of silymarin on Galactosamine-induced hepatitis in the rat (author's transl)].
abstract: The hepatoprotective action of Silymarin was studied in 65 male Wistar rats, prior to and following D-galactosamine intoxication. There was a marked reduction in the histological and ultrastructural changes in the nucleolus, nuclear membrane, mitochondria, granular and agranular endoplasmic reticulum and lysosomes of the liver cell and also in the Kupffer stellate cells. The reduction in glycogen and RNA loss was determined biochemically. The activities of many enzymes were kept constant (oxidoreductases, NADH2 diaphorase, G-6-phosphatase, Mg++ and K+/Na+-dependent ATPases, acid phosphatases).
