Fig. 1From: Sea urchin (Diadema savignyi) extract as a novel protective agent against cisplatin induced neurotoxicity in ratsBehavioral Assessment. Cisplatin administration significantly decreased cold withdrawal latency for cold (a) from about 30 sec to about 5 seconds (**** p-value < 0.0001). Treatment with shell and spine extracts increased the latency back to control levels, except for the SP-100 group which was still below the control levels. (*p-value < 0.05, n = 6). Heat withdrawal latency decreased from 15 sec to about 5 seconds (**** p-value < 0.0001) following Cisplatin administration. Treatment with shell and spine extracts increased the latency back to control levels, except for the SH-100 group which was longer than control levels. (*p-value < 0.05, n = 6)Back to article page
