Experimental design and general in vivo observations. (A) The chemical structure of 4-HC. (B) Experimental design for the evaluation of the chemopreventive effect of 4-HC in male ApcMin mice. Mice were randomly allocated into groups for oral administration with 10 mg/kg/day 4-HC (n=12) or Veh control (n=11) from 8 to 20 weeks of age. Changes in (C) body weight over time and (D) HBG levels at 20 weeks for ApcMin mice orally treated with 4-HC (n=12) or Veh (n=11). Data are presented as the mean ± SEM. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 vs. Veh. 4-HC, 4′-hydroxychalcone; ApcMin, adenomatous polyposis coli multiple intestinal neoplasia mouse model; HGB, hemoglobin; Veh, vehicle.
