다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

To investigate the defensive effect of green tea against the lead toxicity, Sprague-Dewley rats (150 gm) were divided into 5 groups; the control group, the group treated with lead for 4 weeks (Group A-1), the group treated with lead and green tea for 4 weeks (Group A-2), the group treated with lead for 8 weeks (Group B-1), and the group treated with lead and green tea for 8 weeks (Group B-2). The lead acetate (500 ppm) was injected two times for one week into the abdomen and green tea solution (3 g/100 ml distilled water) offered freely. In the liver cell, The cristae of mitochondria were enlarged, the rough endoplasmic reticulum (rER) extended and many lysosome observed on the Group A- 1. The cristae of mitochondria were enlarged and many lysosome observed, but nucleus was normal on the Croup A-2. All of observed parts on the Group B-1 deeply wounded by lead than the group A-1. In the Group B-2, the mitochondria and rER were increased in number than the Group B-1 and the nucleus was observed normally.
