Effect of glycyrrhizin on liver fibrosis in unmatured Wistar rats
Objective To observe the effect of glycyrrhizin (Meineng) on liver fibrosis in unmatured Wistar rats for the prevention and therapy of children’s diseases. Methods The liver fibrosis model in rats aged 22-23 days was established by intraperitoneal injection of the mixture of CCl
4
and peanut oil. Glycyrrhizin was used for prevention and treatment of liver fibrosis. Group A: after 2-
4-
6-
8-week liver fibrosis establishment
the rats received glycyrrhizin till the experiment ended. Group B: Accompanying the rat model establishment
glycyrrhizin was used
and the rats were sacrificed at 2
nd
4
th
6
th
8
th
week after experiment started. Group C: Liver fibrosis establishment only. At the end of experiment
the morphological and pathological changes of liver tissues were observed in all rats. Results The morphologic
al and pathological changes of the liver tissues in group A were much less than that in groups B and C. The therapeutic effect got better as treatment period prolonged. Conclusion Glycyrrhizin can efficaciously prevent and treat liver fibrosis in unmatured Wistar rats.
