Serum kidney function test molecules in ADX, sham operated rats and myrcene treated ADX and sham rats: (A) LDH; (B) BUN; (C) creatinine; and (D) total protein. LDH, BUN, and creatinine were significantly increased in the untreated ADX group compared to the sham operated. Myrcene treatment significantly decreased LDH, BUN, and creatinine compared to untreated ADX group. However, the LDH levels of the myrcene treated ADX group were significantly upregulated compared to sham treated group. Each data-point represents the mean ± STD of 6–9 rats per group. *** p < 0.001 compared to naïve; ##p < 0.01, ### p < 0.001 compared to untreated sham; $$ p < 0.01, $$$ p < 0.001 compared to untreated ADX.
