Pathogenic degrees of the rat livers. Histological analysis of the rat livers. NAFLD rats were randomized and fed with HFD (Model), with HFD and treated p.o with 30 mg/Kg body weight of ATO daily (ATO), with normal chow diet (DC), with normal chow diet and treated with the same dose of ATO (DCA) for 8 weeks. Healthy rats were fed continually with normal chow diet and used as normal controls (Normal). Their liver tissue sections were stained with H&E and examined under a light microscope. Data shown are representative images (magnification 40x) of each group (n = 8 per group) from four independent experiments and control and experimental rats were analyzed simultaneously. (a) Normal control group; (b) The model group; (c) The DC group; (d) The DCA group; and (e) The ATO group.
