Effect of the oral administration of EEGC on the increase in mechanical sensitivity (paw withdrawal threshold) in articular inflammation induced by the zymosan model in mice. The figures show the values at 3 (a) and 4 h (b) after the procedure of induction of articular inflammation in the naive, control up (saline 0.9%, p.o.), EEGC (100 mg/kg, p.o.), and dexa (1 mg/kg, s.c.) groups. The bars express the mean ± SEM compared with the control vs. treated group.  < 0.05;  < 0.01; One-way analysis of variance followed by the Newman–Keuls test.
