The labels “a,” “b,” and “c” denote for the comparison versus vitamin C group, statin group, and combined group at a specific time-point, respectively. In the time- point of 24 h and day 7 the combination group showed a significant reduction in ICAM-1 as compared to the control group. In the time-point of 24 h the combination group had a significant reduction in ICAM-1 when compared to the statin group. However, there was no difference in each time-point between vitamin C and combination group.
