EFFECTS OF NUCLEIC ACID PRECURSORS ON LIVER INJURIES

II. THE INFLUENCES OF AICA AND AICA OROTATE ON METABOLISMS IN LIVER INJURIES AND THEIR CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCES

Abstract

Rats with liver injuries induced by a low protein diet were administered with AICA orotate in appropriate doses during the process of their recovery by a high protein diet, and its effect to hasten recovery was studied from various metabolic phases.
Clinically, AICA orotate often exhibited its effect to improve liver functions in patients with liver diseases, especially chronic ones.
