Values arc presented as mean ± SEM (eight mice per group). Statistical analysis was performed by two-way ANOVA, followed by Student-Newman-Keuls test.

*

P < 0.05 compared with the respective saline-treated group.

**

P < 0.05 compared with the 0.625 mg/kg-treated groups.

***

P < 0.05 compared with the 2.5 mg/kg-treated group.

****

P < 0.05 compared with the corresponding wild-type mice.
