Evaluation of liver toxicity of LM10 in mice
Liver enzyme* | ALAT (IU/mL ± SEM) | ALAP (IU/mL ± SEM) | ASAT (IU/mL ± SEM) | γ-GT (IU/mL ± SEM) |
Control† | 34.8 ± 2.4 | 74.4 ± 2.3 | 106.7 ± 8.8 | 3.0 ± 0.2 |
LM10-treated‡ | 47.5 ± 3.3 | 92.7 ± 3.0 | 156.9 ± 8.1 | 2.8 ± 0.2 |
Normal range§ | 21–83 | 68–89 | 70–215 | 1–4 |
*Enzyme activities were measured in the plasma. ALAP: alkaline phosphatase; γ-GT: γ-glutamyl transferase; ALAT: alanine aminotransferase, ASAT: aspartate aminotransferase.
†Group of 43 mice from the experiment reported in Fig. 2B, fed with normal drinking water and tested 107 d after tumor challenge. Shown are the compiled results of three independent assays.
‡Group of 82 mice from the experiment reported in Fig. 2B, fed with a solution of LM10 (1 mg/mL pH 9; 160 mg/kg/day) and tested 107 d after tumor challenge. Shown are the compiled results of three independent assays.
