Evaluation of serum levels of transaminases and bilirubin

Groups	Alanine Aminotransferase, units/l	Aspartate Aminotransferase, units/l	Total Bilirubin, mg/l
WT normal mice	20.2 ± 2.4 (n = 8)	55.2 ± 3.9 (n = 8)	<0.1 (n = 8)
NK-1R−/− normal mice	123.8 ± 20.7 (n = 11)	229.3 ± 23.2 (n = 12)	<0.1 (n = 16)
WT BDL mice	687.1 ± 119.1* (n = 6)	1,134.6 ± 212.1* (n = 5)	13.58 ± 1.74* (n = 7)
NK-1R−/− BDL mice	389 ± 35† (n = 6)	708.6 ± 50.6† (n = 5)	9.22 ± 1.1† (n = 7)

Data are means ± SE of 7 evaluations.

^*P < 0.05 vs. the corresponding value of normal WT mice.

^†P < 0.05 vs. the corresponding value of WT mice with BDL for 7 days.
