Photomicrographs of liver samples stained with Hematoxylin & Eosin (X40 magnification, Indicate steatosis, indicate lobular inflammation). NC = normal control, FC = fructose control, SC = silymarin control, FTH = fructose + 200 mg/kg silymarin, FFH = fructose + 400 mg/kg silymarin. a No fatty change in NC group; b the micrographs showed steatosis in the FC group; c no fatty change on SC group; d little improvement of stetosis in FTH group; e better improvement of stetosis and lobular inflammation in FFH group. The scale bar is 10 μm in a, b, c, d and e micrographs
