Data are represented as mean ± SEM (n = 6). Values with different superscripts across a row are significantly different at p < 0.05. Values without superscripts across a row are not significantly different at p < 0.05. TCA: T. catappa aqueous extract ALT: alanine transaminase, AST: aspartate aminotransferase, ALP: alkaline phosphatase, ALB: albumin, BIL: bilirubin, Ca: calcium, Na: sodium, BUN: blood urea nitrogen, HCO3: bicarbonate and Crea: creatinine.
