Comparative of Matrix Metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) gene expression between different groups in three time points. A) Increasing level of MMP9 gene expression in positive control group at 2, 4 and 6 h post exposure, B, C & D) Increasing level of MMP9 gene expression at 2h and 4h and decreasing at 6 h post exposure in NS, NL & NLS groups respectively, (p < 0.05 = *, p < 0.01 = **, p < 0.001 = ***, p < 0.0001 = ****)
