Experimental protocol for Fch pretreatment. (a) Curve doses-response: animals were given 10 days Fch (2, 4, and 8 g/kg/day). (b) Protocol of animal design groups after analysis of curve doses-response. Animals were given 10 days Fch (4 g/kg/day). After the period of Fch administration, group of control (light grey bars) and Fch-treated (dark grey bars) animals were subject to LPS-induced liver injury, thus conforming the experimental groups. Blood and liver samples were obtained at 3 hours of LPS challenger (or LPS-vehicle control).
