Methods:Liver injury was induced by intravenous injection of Con A. Anti-mouse MIP-1α antibody, recombinant murine-MIP-1α and gadolinium chloride (GdCl_3) were administrated prior to Con A injection. Plasma alanine aminotransferase (ALT), MIP-1α, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interferon-γ (IFN-γ) levels were determined and histological assessment of the liver was performed.
