  1. Data are mean ± SEM (n = 10–12 per group). Differences between the groups were determined by one-way ANOVA followed by Fisher’s least significant difference test
  2. N, standard powder diet; ASP, aspirin; LBP, aspirin + Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP); CPC, aspirin + C-phycocyanin (CPC); MIX, aspirin + LBP + CPC
  3. *p < 0.05 compared with the N group; #p < 0.05 compared with the ASP group
