Table 1. Comparison of animal groups by the total number of mast cells, including degranulated cells, and the degranulation coefficient
Note. Data are presented as a median (lower quartile; upper quartile) 1 — р <0.05 when comparing groups 4 and 1; # — р <0.05 when comparing groups 2 and 3 with group 1; * — р <0.05 when comparing groups 5 and 6 with group 4; ° — р <0.05 when comparing group 2 with group 3 and group 5 with group 6.
Table 2. Comparison of animal groups by the number of mast cells depending on their degree of degranulation
Note. Data are presented as a median (lower quartile; upper quartile) 1 — р <0.05 when comparing groups 4 and 1; # — р <0.05 when comparing groups 2 and 3 with group 1; * — р <0.05 when comparing groups 5 and 6 with group 4; ° — р <0.05 when comparing group 2 with group 3 and group 5 with group 6.
