Glycogen examination in the experimental groups. (a-c) photomicrographs of liver sections stained by Periodic acid–Schiff stain (PAS), bar = 50 μm. (a) In control group, showing great amount of glycogen represented as the positive reaction of PAS. (b) In UA group, showing noticeable depletion in glycogen content in most of the hepatocytes. (c) In GA + UA group, showing positive PAS reaction resembling those of control group. (d) Percentage of area of glycogen amount in the different experimental groups. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM of 3 rats per group (One-way ANOVA followed by Duncan post-test). # significant difference between UA and the control groups. & significant difference between GA + UA and UA groups
