To investigate effects of A. gmelini on the 14-day CCl$_4$induced hepatotoxicity, extracts were prepared in 3 ml saline at the dose of 5,000 mg/kg b.w. to administer orally once daily. Each concentration (5：5, 2：5 : 7.5, 1：9, CCl$_4$: olive oil v/v) of CCl$_4$was orally administered with 2.5 ml/kg b.w., During the experiment, halves of the rats were sacrificed every 7 day and hemanalysis was done. On the 7th day, hemanalysis showed following recovery values; AST 52.6∼61.4％, ALT 55.9∼86.1％, ALP 46.0∼70.9%, BUN 75.7∼100.0< ％, TBIL 55.2∼96.1％, TCHO 38.0∼63.7％, and TG 55.2∼96.0％. On the 14th day, recovery values of each treatment were GOT 37.7∼43.1％, GPT 19.8∼45.9％, ALP 58.1∼95.9％, BUN 57.6∼100.0< ％, TBIL 78.6∼100.0< ％, TCHO 56.9∼100.0< ％, and TG 10.0∼5l.2%. By histological examination of liver, hydropic degeneration, fatty change, lipid accumulation and necrosis were also recovered by administration of A. gmelini extract.

To investigate effects of A. gmelini on the 14-day CCl$_4$induced hepatotoxicity, extracts were prepared in 3 ml saline at the dose of 50, 500, 5,000 mg/kg b.w. to administer orally everyday and same concentration (1 : 9, CCl$_4$: olive oil v/v) of CCl$_4$administered intraperitoneally with 2.5 ml/kg b.w. On the 7th day, hemanalysis showed following recovery values; AST 9.9∼64.6%, ALT 36.9∼71.9%, ALP 75.3∼93.7％, BUN 53.8∼59.7%, TBIL 60.4∼100.0< ％, TCHO 77.7∼100.0< ％, and TG 60.4∼100.0< ％. Even if, 14-day CCl$_4$induced hepatotoxicity recovery was found to depend on doses of extract, and recovery values of each treatment were AST 13.8∼56.4％, ALT 15.7∼68.0％, ALP 53.4∼84.4％, BUN 76.9∼100.0< ％, TBIL 60.4 ∼ 100.0< %, TCHO 82.6∼99.3< ％, and TG 56.7∼99.7%. By histological examination of liver, hydropic degeneration, fatty change, lipid accumulation and necrosis were also recovered.
