| Adhatoda + radiation (800 mg kg−1 body weight + 8 Gy) | 54.25 ± 1.54* | 55.02 ± 1.55*** | 62.60 ± 2.40*** | 66.40 ± 1.65*** | 80.82 ± 2.68 |
Values are depicted as Mean ± SD.
Normal (DDW): 93.20 ± 1.62.
Significance level: *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001.
Statistical comparison: Adhatoda versus normal (DDW); radiation versus normal (DDW); Adhatoda + radiation versus radiation.
