Abstract
The effect of zosterin (pectin polysaccharide) on the protein-synthesizing function of mouse liver cells was studied after its intragastric administration of 1% gel zosterin. The drug modified the morphology and function of the nucleolar apparatus by changing the number and summary area of the nucleoli, content of Ag proteins, nucleolar/nuclear ratio, and increased protein content in hepatocyte cytoplasm.
