Each value represents Mean ± S.E.M. (n=6). ANOVA followed by multiple two tail t-test. Data with different superscripts (a,b) differ from each other significantly (p<0.05) in specific tissue sample.

UC= untreated control, PC= placebo control, EPCC= extract pretreated cum co-treated control, FS= forced swimming, EPCS= extract pretreated cum co-treated swimming, PSVC= preconditioned followed by swimming and vitamin E co-administered.
