  1. Most serum biochemical parameters were within the normal range, except the pharmacological effects ALT in 90 d treated groups, AST, UREA, and CREA in 90 and 105 days treated groups, after a 13-week POM93 oral treatment. The results are shown as average ± S.D. (n = 20), *P < 0.05 versus control and P < 0.05 versus 62.2 mg/kg groups by one-way ANOVA
