Antiaging and Anxiolytic Effects of Combinatory Formulas Based on Four Medicinal Herbs

Figure 2

Anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects in brains of D-galactose-induced aging mice. Different groups of mice were treated as described in Figure 1. The anti-inflammatory effect was evaluated by measurement of the brain levels of TNF-α (a) and IL-6 (b), and antioxidant effect was evaluated by measurement of the brain level of MDA (c). Data are expressed in mean ± SD. ^##() or ^###() indicates significant difference between D-gal group and Veh group, whereas () or () indicates significant difference between herbal group and D-gal group, based on one-way ANOVA test followed by Newman-Keuls test.
