Values were presented as mean ± SE
^aP value time by treated was obtained from Mann–Whitney U test (two-tailed), otherwise, it was obtained from independent-sample t test (two-tailed)
^bP value was obtained from Wilcoxon signed rank test (two-tailed), otherwise, it was obtained from paired t test (two-tailed)
