Percent inhibition produced by synthesized compounds (25, 50, and 100 mg/kg) of the arachidonic acid-induced ear edema model in mice. Each percentage point embodies the mean ± SEM for a group of 8 mice. Data were analyzed by two-way repeated measures ANOVA pursued by Bonferroni’s post hoc test. , , and . n.s, nonsignificant; n = 8 mice per group.
