Time–course of survival rate, body weight and disease activity of dextran sulphate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in glabridin-treated mice. (a) Survival rates, (b) body weight and (c) disease activity index of glabridin-treated mice and control mice administered 5% DSS were monitored every day. Data are the sum of results of three independent experiments (n = 10 per group). The values of body weight are expressed as the percentage of body weight on day 0. Each point represents the mean ± standard error of the mean. *Different from DSS group, P < 0·05.
