Abstract
- Gibberellic acid used as a plant growth regulator should take into concern due to its hepatotoxic effects.
- Gibberellic acid increases free radicals production that changes both the activities and mRNA of antioxidant enzymes.
- Liver cell damage with release of liver enzymes in response to gibberellic toxicity.
- Phycocyanin used to scavenge free radical production through increase activities and mRNA of antioxidant enzymes.
- Phycocyanin improves liver cell integrity and decreases level of liver enzymes.
