a Mean values and standard deviation of TNF-α in diaphragm (white bars) and gastrocnemius (black bars) muscles as measured by picogram per milliliter (pg/mL). Statistical significance is represented as follows: n.s.: non-significant and *p ≤ 0.05 between any of the intervention groups (U and E–U) and control mice. b Mean values and standard deviation of IL-6 in diaphragm (white bars) and gastrocnemius (black bars) muscles as measured by picogram per milliliter (pg/mL). Statistical significance is represented as follows: n.s.: non-significant and ***p ≤ 0.001 between any of the intervention groups (U and E–U) and control mice.
