Figure 2

Typical 600 MHz 1H-NMR spectra of rat serum from Con (a), Mod (b), and QJ2 (c) groups. Note. Con, control group; Mod, acute liver damage model; SYL, silybin treated group (40 mg/kg); QJ2, QJ treated groups (2 g/kg). Metabolites: (1) LDL/VLDL, (2) isoleucine, (3) leucine, (4) valine, (5) 3-hydroxybutyrate, (6) lactate, (7) alanine, (8) lysine, (9) acetate, (10) acetone, (11) acetoacetate, (12) glutamate, (13) pyruvate, (14) succinate, (15) glutamine, (16) citrate, (17) N,N-dimethylglycine, (18) creatine, (19) choline, (20) O-phosphocholine, (21) betaine, (22) glycine, (23) glucose, (24) serine, (25) fumarate, (26) tyrosine, (27) τ-methylhistidine, (28) phenylalanine, and (29) format.
