^a Data are presented as the means ± SEM obtained from three independent experiments; n = 25 rats; 5 rats per group. I, Control group, animals treated orally for five days with distilled water and then intraperitoneally (i.p.) injected with 1 mL/kg body weight (bwt) in olive oil; II, CCl₄ 1 mL/kg i.p.; III, N. cataria FME 200 mg/kg;, IV, N. cataria LME 200 mg/kg; V, N. cataria SME 200 mg/kg; * p < 0.05 when compared with the negative control group; ^† p < 0.05 when compared with the positive control group.
