Data are presented as the mean ± SE. The results were statistically analyzed using Student’s t-test or one-way ANOVA. a p < 0.05, significant difference compared to the negative control; Dunnett’s t-test. aa p < 0.01, significant difference compared to the negative control; Dunnett’s t-test. ** p < 0.01, significant difference compared to the normal control; Student’s t-test. $$ p < 0.01, significant difference compared to the negative control; Welch’s t-test.
