Fig. 6. Effects of SBCC on levels of serum inflammatory cytokines, glycerol and TG in mice bearing C26 tumor. Healthy mice were supplemented with distilled water and mice bearing C26 tumor were treated with distilled water or SBCC (1.5 g kg⁻¹) by gavage daily for 17 days. The serum concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6, glycerol and triglycerides in mice on day 17 were determined by ELISA kits and commercial enzymatic kits according to the manufacturer's protocols. (A) Serum level of IL-6. (B) Serum level of TNF-α. (C) Serum level of glycerol. (D) Serum level of TG. Data presented are the mean ± SEM (n = 8). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 vs. health mice; ^#p < 0.05, ^##p < 0.01 vs. C26 model mice.
