Results are expressed as mean ± SD (). Range was provided by Duncan multiple-range test at . Different letters a–d in the column represent values that are significantly different when ulcer-induced group was compared with healthy control and sample-treated groups. amoderately significant; bless or not significant; cless significant and dmost significant.
