Effect of BITC on the levels of creatinine and activities of AST and ALT in the sera of mice.
| BITC (mg/kg) | Normal Mouse | TRAMP Mouse | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 10 | 0 | 5 | 10 | |
| Creatinine (nmol/L) | 0.20 ± 0.02 | 0.23 ± 0.05 | 0.25 ± 0.03 | 0.20 ± 0.01 | 0.18 ± 0.01 |
| AST (U/L) | 81.1 ± 6.47 | 59.9 ± 9.73 | 59.5 ± 3.69 | 52.8 ± 8.62 | 58.6 ± 8.89 |
| ALT(U/L) | 30.8 ± 14.0 | 9.50 ± 0.50 | 20.6 ± 5.13 | 21.3 ± 7.06 | 13.2 ± 1.74 |
Blood samples were collected from the mice, and the sera were prepared. The levels of creatinine and the activities of ALT and AST were measured using the appropriate assay kits. The values are expressed as the means ± SEM (normal mouse, n = 6; TRAMP mouse, n = 5).
