The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of lecithin/cholesterol liposomes in the therapy of experimental venous congestion-induced chronic liver insufficiency. The effects of the empty liposomes, ATP and phosphocreatine-containing liposomes and alpha-tocopherol and superoxide dismutase-containing liposomes were studied. It was found that liposomal drugs have a hepatoprotective effect, i.e. they decrease blood enzyme activity (cytolysis markers), reduce oxidative stress and preserve histologic integrity of the liver.
