Effect of conditioned medium (CM) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-CM on serum levels of aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) in partially hepatectomized mice. Mice were intravenously injected with low-glucose Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (control), LPS (0.5 ng/mL), CM, or LPS-CM 1 hour after partial hepatectomy. At day 1 after partial hepatectomy, the LPS-CM-treated mice had significantly lower AST (A) and ALT (B) levels compared with the other groups (P <0.05). *P <0.05.
