Data are mean ± SD of seven animals per group. Statistical analysis was performed by the one-way ANOVA (p < 0.001 for all tested parameters) using Tukey’s as post-test, which allowed a multiple comparison among the four groups. In each row, values with different superscript letters are significantly different (at least p < 0.05)
