Fig. 6

Treatment with chitosan (Cs) and curcumin (Cn) NPs decreased infiltrated macrophages in glycerol-injured rat muscles. a Light micrographs of muscles from control (glycerol-injured), treated with Cs-50, − 200, and − 400 μg, and Cn-5, − 20, − 40 μg. labelled with anti-CD-68 antibody. b Treatment with Cs and Cn NPs significantly decreased the CD-68+ cells. Data are expressed as means ± SD, NS, not significant, * indicates significant difference from glycerol-injured muscle, # indicates significant difference between treatment groups and significant difference is indicated (P < 0.05)
