Fig. 2From: Acacia hydaspica R. Parker ameliorates cisplatin induced oxidative stress, DNA damage and morphological alterations in rat pulmonary tissueHistopathological effect of cisplatin and protective effect of AHE in rat Lungs. (H&E staining; magnification 40X). Group 1: Lung tissue section from control rats showing normal morphology. Group 2: tissue sections from CP-treated rats show degenerative changes, atrophy and cellular infiltrations. Group 3: Represents lung section from AHE alone treated rats. Group 4: AHE Post-treatment showed mild disorganizations, cellular infiltrations and fibroblast aggregations. Group 5: AHE Pre-treatment showed significant protection against CP-induced lung injury. Group 6: Showed protective effect of Silymarin treatment.
