Before revision: Our observation suggest that gomisin A shows an antihepatotoxic action by oral application and also has hypolipidemic (mainly triglyceridemic) and liver protein synthesis-facilitating actions and that the enlargement of the liver seen with gomisin A is the adaptive hypertrophy which is due to the induction of drug-metabolizing enzyme
