[The effect of loading liver lysosomes with triton WR 1339 on the development of chronic toxic hepatitis]

Preliminary administration of triton WR 1339 produced a favourable effect on the course of chronic toxic hepatitis. This was expressed in a reduction of necrotic zones, a delay in development of connective tissue and in improvement of the functional capacity of the liver. Lysosomes of the liver of animals subjected to the action of CCl-4 under conditions of preliminary administration of a detergent were more stable to the injurious actions in vitro.
