Effect of dry extract of Satureja montana, rosmarinic acid, and carvacrol on serum concentration of IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α in a chronic unpredictable mild stress experimental model. Comparison of the results with one-way ANOVA found the following results: IL-6: F=3.605; p<0.0001; IL-1β: F=1.055; p= 0.413; TNF-α: F=2.642; p=0.007. Further comparison of the groups with LSD post hoc test found the following: * A significant increase of serum concentration of IL-6 compared to the sham control; ** A significant decrease of serum concentrations of IL-6 in carvacrol treated group compared; to positive olive oil control; # A significant increase of serum concentration of TNF-α compared to the sham control; ## A significant decrease of serum concentrations of TNF-α in carvacrol treated group compared to positive olive oil control.
