Effects of different concentrations of TSAV on the serum TNF-α, IL-6, iNOS, and NO activities. Group I: control; Group II: CCl₄; Group III: TSAV 50 mg/kg + CCl₄; Group IV: TSAV 100 mg/kg + CCl₄; Group V: TSAV 200 mg/kg + CCl₄; Group VI: silymarin 200 mg/kg + CCl₄. Each bar represents the mean ± SD, 𝑛=10; bars with different alphabets differ significantly at 𝑃<0.05 level.
