Data are expressed as mean ± S.D. Statistically significant differences from control are marked as *P < 0.05 and differences from the LE group are marked as P < 0.05. LE: 120 minutes of light exposure and immediate sacrifice of the animal, LEW: 120 minutes of light exposure with sacrifice of the animal one week after exposure.
