Effects of treatment with Hypericum Perforatum at three different doses (HP; 125, 250, 500 mg/kg) or 17α-ethinylestradiol (E; 30 µg/kg) on hippocampuslevels of TNFα and corticosterone in ovariectomized rats

Data are mean±SD. n, number of animals; OVX, ovariectomized; HP, hypericum perforatum; E, 17α-ethinylestradiol. One way ANOVA followed by Tukey' Multiple Comparisons test: ^ap <0.05, compared to control sham operated group. ^bp<0.05 compared to OVX untreated group and ^cp<0.05 compared to 17α-ethinylestradiol treated group.
