Photomicrographs of liver sections from (a) Control rats showing normal liver histology: clear centrioles with well fenestrated sinusoidal space, (b) rats treated with 250 mg/kg b.w DT and CCl4 showing fatty accumulation although with clear centrioles (c) rats treated with 500 mg/kg bw. DT and CCl4 showing less fatty accumulation although the centriole appears congested with neutrophilic infiltrates around it, (d) rats treated with 1000 mg/kg bw DT and CCl4 showing mild fatty accumulation with congested centrioles amidst distinct hepatic nuclei, neutrophilic infiltrates are also present (e) rats treated with CCl4 only showing fatty accumulation and multifocal distortion in liver histology and congestion of the central vein. The liver sections were stained with H/E and observed with a 10X objective. DT stands for Dennettia tripetala
