Effects of QG administration on DEX-induced GM atrophy in BALB/cCrSlc mice.

Mice were administered 0.15% or 0.45% w/v QGs in drinking water for 7 days (day −6 to day 0) and then co-administered QGs with 0.001% w/v DEX (A) a further 7 days (day 7) or (B) 1 (day 1) or 3 days (day 3).Graphs express the weight of GM adjusted by body weight (BW). Values represent the mean ± SE (n = 8). Significant differences were determined by Dunnett's test (*p < 0.05).
