Why is it important?
Hepatoprotective effect of a single dose lycopene in animal models.
Perspectives
Further experiments need to be performed in order to concretely establish the hepatoprotective effect of lycopene in animal models. Thus, The next goal will be to check the effect of prolonged pretreatment rather than just a single dose of lycopene
