Change in the levels of total NO (a) and MMP-9 (b) in the mid brain following ROT administration. The levels of NO and MMP-9 was significantly increased in the ROT injected rats compared to control rats. Moreover, rats injected with ROT and treated with BSB showed significantly decreased levels of NO and MMP-9. The values are expressed as the mean ± SEM (n = 7–8). * p < 0.05 CON vs ROT; # p < 0.05 ROT vs. BR (One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test).
