Figure 2. Effects of orally administered aqueous (AD, panels A and B) and ethanol extracts (ED, panels C and D) of decaffeinated coffee on formalin-induced licking in mice. The animals were pretreated orally with vehicle, ED (30, 100 and 300 mg/kg), indomethacin (Indo; 10 mg/kg) or morphine (10 mg/kg) prior to formalin injection. The total time spent licking the hind paw was measured in the first (panels A and C) and second (panels B and D) phases after intraplantar injection of formalin. Each column represents the mean ± S.E.M. (n = 8). The asterisks indicate the following significance level when compared to the control group: ***p < 0.001 (Newman-Keuls)
