  1. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM. The data was analyzed by ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s test; Percent h Inibition was calculated in comparison to the control group. Asterisks shows the significant values (**p ≤ 0.01 and *p ≤ 0.05) vs. control group (n = 6) and n.s shows statistically non significant values
