  1. Data are expressed as mean ± S.D (n = 6) except for fold change. aAll the groups are significantly different from each other at p ≤ 0.001 except for those marked similarly. CCl4 increased the ALT and AST levels by 2570.07% and 890.89% respectively with respect to VC. Actual values for CCl4 and VC for ALT are 7.21 ± 0.35 and 0.27 ± 0.05 respectively; AST are 6.50 ± 0.61 and 0.93 ± 0.20 respectively. The actual values are expressed in units of nmoles/nL.
