Title: [Morphological studies of the effects of protein-free diet and branched-chain amino acids (aminosteril-hepa (Frasenius)) on experimental thioacetamide-induced liver damage]. Author: Nowak HF, Zimnoch L, Boroń P, Farbiszewski R, Szpakowska T, Flisiak R, Pytel B. Journal: Patol Pol; 1990; 41(1-2):90-6. PubMed ID: 2100794. Abstract: The studies were performed in two groups of rats in which experimental hepatic encephalopathy was induced with tioacetamide++. One group of rats on protein-free diet was given intraperitoneally a mixture of amino-acids (Aminosteril-Hepa), the other one was given proteins in the diet in a dose 1 g per kg of body weight. Histological and histochemical studies revealed that free-protein diet with a mixture of aliphatic polybranched amino-acids (Aminosteril-Hepa) inhibited hepatotoxic thioacetamide+ action on the rat liver.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
