Immunohistochemical staining of AFB₁observed by two observers were represented at (–), (+), (++), (+++). (–): negative reaction, (+): weak stainability, (++): medium stainability, (+++): strong stainability, CV: central vein, PV: portal vein. G1: control group (no treated group), G2: AFB₁–treated group, G3: the group treated with AFB1 and vitamin C, G4: the group treated with X–ray and AFB1, G5: the group treated with X–ray and AFB1 with vitamin C.
