Figure 1.
A: Serum alanine transaminase (ALT) in the different treatment groups. Each value is the mean±SD of 10 animals per group. Bars with the same letters do not differ significantly. Relative gene expression oftumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) (B) and interleukin 6 (IL6) (C) for all groups. Data are the mean±SD. PH: Partial hepatectomy.

Figure 2.
Hepatocytes in sections of liver stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Tissue integrity was preserved in liver sections of partial hepatectomized (PH) saline-treated groups (group IV and V) (A), PH silymarin-treated groups (group VI and VII) (C) and PH geraniol-treated groups (group VIII and IX) (E). Mitotic figures and vacuolization were observed in PH saline-treated groups (group IV and V) (B), PH silymarin-treated groups (group VI and VII) (D) and PH geraniol-treated groups (group VIII and IX) (F). Mitotic figures are shown with an arrow, and vacuolization is shown with an arrowhead.
