The Mann–Whitney U multiple comparison test with Bonferroni correction was performed to find the source of the difference revealing that the mean of ischemia (22.425 ± 2.055) group was significantly higher than the means of sham (17.140 ± 0.898), NACA (17.225 ± 0.842), and NAC (18.532 ± 0.655) groups (p=0.006, p=0.006, and p = 0.004, respectively). This evidence concerns the gene NACA and ischemia.
