Notes: Model, treated with D-Gal/LPS (250 mg/kg·bw and 25 mg/kg·bw) injection; silymarin-L: treated with silymarin (75 mg/kg·bw) oral administration; silymarin-H: treated with silymarin (150 mg/kg·bw) oral administration. ^AValues presented are the mean±standard deviation (SD) of different organ coefficients. Rate (%) = (mice weight in week 4 - mice weight in week 0)/mice weight in week 0 × 100%.
