Data represent the mean ± SEM from three separate experiments. Values in the same row marked with superscripts alphabets (a and b) represent differences between control samples and samples treated with different concentrations of nC₆₀, while values in the same row marked with superscripts alphabets (x and y) represent differences between different nC₆₀ concentrations. Significance level was set at 0.05.
