Values are (). X compared to the control group, y compared to the CDDP group, z compared to the CDDP+GL daily group, $ compared to the CDDP+GL EOD group, and # compared to the CDDP+GL inject. group using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey-Kramer as post hoc test. CDDP: cisplatin; GL: Ganoderma lucidum; EOD: every other day; BUN: blood urea nitrogen; SOD: superoxide dismutase; H2O2; hydrogen peroxide; HMGB-1: high-mobility group box-1.
