Serum samples were collected at the time mice were euthanized and analyzed as described in Materials and Methods. Average values (pg/mL serum) are shown here ± standard error of the mean except where noted.

^aP < 0.05,

^bP < 0.01 compared to mdr1a^-/- vehicle with Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn’s multiple comparisons test.

^cP < 0.05,

^dP < 0.01 compared to mdr1a-/- vehicle with unpaired t-test with Welch’s correction. ND: Not detectable; P. vulgaris: Prunella vulgaris.
