[Protective effect of sho-saiko-to (TJ 9) in experimental liver injury].

Experiments carried out on male mice (ICR) demonstrated a protective effect of premedication with the preparation Sho-Saiko-To (TJ 9, Tsumura and Comp.) against the hepatotoxic effects of CCl4 and T1-acetate, which were manifested by increased peroxidation of lipids and increased depletion of reduced glutathion in liver homogenates.
