Data express the mean ± S.E. The letters in the columns indicate statistical differences by Duncan’s multiple range test (p < 0.05). Control: Normal rat supplied with tap water, BPH: Castrated rat supplied with tap water, AG 100: Castrated rat supplied with AG 100 mg/kg of BW daily, AG 250: Castrated rat supplied with AG 250 mg/kg of BW daily, AG 500: Castrated rat supplied with AG 500 mg/kg of BW daily. Data are represented as mean±SEM. a, P<0.05 vs. control, b, P<0.01 vs. control, c, P<0.001 vs. control
