Hypouricemic effect of the methanol extract from Prunus mume fruit in mice

Figures & data

Figure 1.  Effects of methanol extract from Prunus mume fruit (MPMF) on uric acid levels in serum (A), liver (B) and urine (C) in mice with potassium oxonate-induced hyperuremia. Data were expressed as the mean ± S.E.M. ^##p < 0.01 vs vehicle-control group (Con); ^*p < 0.05, ^**p < 0.01 and ^***p < 0.001 vs vehicle with potassium oxonate group (Mod).

Figure 2.  Effects of methanol extract from Prunus mume fruit (MPMF) on liver xanthine oxidase (XO) activity in mice with potassium oxonate-induced hyperuremia. Data were expressed as the mean ± S.E.M. ^##p < 0.01 vs vehicle-control group (Con); ^*p < 0.05, ^**p < 0.01 and ^***p < 0.001 vs vehicle with potassium oxonate group (Mod).
