The liver section of Wistar rats (Bcl-2 × 250). Plate (A): Section of liver of Wistar rats administered 2 ml/kg H20 (control group) showing presence of Bcl-2-stained bodies. CV: Central Vein, Blue arrow: Bcl-2-stained cells. Plate (B): Section of liver of Wistar rats administered HgCl2 with no Bcl-2-stained bodies. H: Hepatocytes; CV: Central Vein. Yellow arrow: Hepatocytes. Plate (C): Section of Liver of Wistar rats administered 500 mg/kg BFPD and HgCl2 with Bcl-2-stained bodies. blue arrow = BCL-2-stained cells. Plate (D): Section of Liver of Wistar rats administered 1000 mg/kg BFPD and HgCl2 with few Bcl-2-stained bodies present. CV: Central Vein; blue arrow: Bcl-2-stained cells. Plate (E): Section of Liver of Wistar rats administered silymarin and HgCl2 showing numerous Bcl-2-stained bodies. H: Hepatocytes; CV: Central Vein; blue arrow: Bcl-2-stained cells.
