Effects of Vitex agnus-castus fruit on sex hormones and antioxidant indices in a d- galactose-induced aging female mouse model  Akram Ahangarpour, Seyedeh Asma Najimi, Yaghoob Farbood  Journal of the Chinese Medical Association  Volume 79, Issue 11, Pages 589-596 (November 2016) DOI: 10.1016/j.jcma.2016.05.006 Copyright © 2016 Terms and Conditions

Fig. 1 The effects of Vitex agnus-castus (Vitex; 600 mg/kg) on the serum levels of (A) luteinizing hormone (LH), (B) follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), (C) estrogen, and (D) progesterone in the control, d-galactose-treated, and Aging group mice (n=12). The data are presented as the mean±the standard error of the mean. Based on one-way analysis of variance and post hoc least-significant difference tests, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, and *** p < 0.001, compared to the control group; # p < 0.05, compared to the d-galactose group, and † p < 0.05, compared to the Aging group.

The magnification of all images is ×400. DF=degenerated follicle; MF=mature follicle.

The arrow indicates the endometrium and the asterisk (*) indicates swollen glands. The magnification of all images is ×100.

The data are presented as the mean±the standard error of the mean. Based on one-way analysis of variance and post hoc least-significant difference tests, ∗∗ p < 0.01 and ∗∗∗ p < 0.001, compared to the control group; #p < 0.05 and ###p < 0.001, compared to the d-galactose group; and †p < 0.05 and ††p < 0.01, compared to the Aging group. MDA=malondialdehyde; SOD=superoxide dismutase. Journal of the Chinese Medical Association 2016 79, 589-596DOI: (10.1016/j.jcma.2016.05.006) Copyright © 2016 Terms and Conditions
