(C) Representative micrographs of positive Ki67 staining (indicative of cell proliferation) in liver tissues obtained from rats treated with different conditions (200×). The integral optical density (IOD) of Ki67 was calculated by Image-Pro Plus 6.0. The cellular apoptosis rate was calculated by using Image-Pro Plus 6.0 and is represented as the apoptosis rate%. The results are represented as mean ± SEM (n = 8). *P < 0.05 vs control. #P < 0.05 vs LPS as determined by ANOVA
