Effect of chorionic gonadotropin on the content of prostaglandins (E + A) in pathologically altered liver tissue and blood of rats

Twenty-four and 48 hours after injection of chorionic gonadotropin (CG) the content of prostaglandins E + A in the liver and blood plasma of white random-bred rats with chronic hepatitis increases (both after and without castration). This accounts for some aspects of the mechanism of the CG-induced stimulation of liver regeneration, which results in structural and functional normalization of the organ.
