Rat brain caspase-3 and cytokine levels. (A) CASP3; (B) TNFa; (C) IL-6; (D) IL-4; and (E) IL-1b. All the values are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 4). The statistical significance was considered at p < 0.05 and statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA, followed by Tukey’s test. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001 vs. control; @ p < 0.05, @@ p < 0.01,@@@ p < 0.001 vs. lead; # p < 0.05, ## p < 0.01,### p < 0.001 vs. ZnO NPs; %%% p < 0.001 vs. lead+ ZnO NPs. CASP: caspase; TNF: tumor necrosis factor alpha; IL: interleukin; SEM: standard error of mean; and ANOVA: analysis of variance.
