LIVER TRIGLYCERIDE ACCUMULATION AFTER CHRONIC ETHANOL ADMINISTRATION : A POSSIBLE PROTECTIVE ROLE OF METADOXINA AND UBIQUINONE

Hepatoprotective actions of metadoxina and ubiquinone have been studied in alcoholic rats by evaluating hepatic triglyceride accumulation and serum biochemical parameters of liver function. The two drug-treated groups displayed significantly lower triglyceride concentrations as compared to the ethanol-treated group. No significant differences were found among the two drug-treated and the control groups
