All values are presented as Mean ± SEM. The letter (a) indicates a comparison with the control group, the letter (b) indicates a comparison with the AS group, and the letter (c) indicates a comparison with the B group. All data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA, and a post hoc test was performed by Tukey test (n = 8,  < 0.05).
