Table 2. Effect of FJH-UBS administration on the body weight, liver weight, and uterus weight in ovariectomized mice.

Variables Sham OVX OVX+FU OVX+SI
Initial body weight (g) 31.2 ± 1.0 39.7 ± 0.9*** 39.8 ± 1.1 39.5 ± 0.5
Final body weight (g) 36.5 ± 1.9 48.1 ± 1.2*** 44.3 ± 1.5 44.8 ± 0.9
Body weight gain (g) 5.3 ± 1.1 8.4 ± 0.4***,a 4.5 ± 0.4b 5.3 ± 0.6b
Liver weight (g) 1.50 ± 0.07 1.95 ± 0.08***,a 1.75 ± 0.06b 1.65 ± 0.06b
Uterus weight (g) 0.248 ± 0.021 0.062 ± 0.016*** 0.087 ± 0.017 0.084 ± 0.016

Values are expressed as the mean ± SE (n = 10).

Sham, sham-operated group; OVX, ovariectomized group; OVX+FU, ovariectomized and 80 mg/kg body weight FJH-UBS-treated group; OVX+SI, ovariectomized and 5 mg/kg body weight soy isoflavones (a positive control)-treated group.

***P < 0.001 significantly different from the Sham group. Mean without a common letter differs among the OVX, OVX+FU, and OVX+SI groups at P < 0.05.
