^aOverlapped differential pathways between SVP vs. Con and G-CK + SVP vs. SVP estimated. AST, aspartate transaminase; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; ALP, alkaline phosphatase; Con, control; SVP, sodium valproate (500 mg/kg, twice daily); G-CK, ginsenoside compound K (320 mg/kg, once daily). Bold indicates correlation.
