| Abstract: | The protective effects of red potato extract (RPE) as to liver damage were determined in D-galactosamine (GalN)-intoxicated rats. Increases in serum aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and lactate dehydrogenase activities, all of which were induced by GalN injection, decreased in RPE administered rats, suggesting that RPE acts as a functional food showing anti-hepatotoxicity. |
