In this study, the ability of Styela clava or Styela plicata to reduce ethanol-induced hepatotoxicity and hepatic and leucocytic DNA damages was evaluated. Twenty four male SD rats were given 25% ethanol containing water (ad lib, p.o.) and divided into 3 groups; ethanol treated control group (EtOH), ethanol+3% S. clava (EtOH+SC), and ethanol+3% S. plicata (EtOH+SP). After 6 weeks, the supplementation of S. calva reduced the plasma ALT, ALP and LDH activities significantly (p less than 0.05), while S. plicata induced significant decrease in the plasma LDH activity only.
