Data are expressed as Mean±SE for five animals.

^a Significantly higher than control animals (P<0.05).

^b Significantly higher than methimazoletreated animals (P<0.05).

^c Significantly lower than phenobarbital-induced animals which were treated with methimazole (P<0.05).

^d Significantly lower than β-naphtoflavone-induced animals which were treated with methimazole (P<0.05).
