Effect of Qur and/or Arg treatment on serum IgG (a), VEGF (b), total nitrate/nitrite (c), and glucose (d) concentrations in intoxicated rats with a high dose of n-ZnO particles. Values are expressed as mean ± S.D. ^a P < 0.001 ^b P < 0.01 compared with the normal control group, ^*** P < 0.001 compared with the n-ZnO-intoxicated group, ^$ P ≤ 0.01 compared with the arginine-treated group, ^$ P ≤ 0.05 compared with the Qur-treated group, ^πππ P ≤ 0.001, ^ππ P ≤ 0.01 compared with the combination group, respectively, using ANOVA followed by Bonferroni as a post-ANOVA test.
