  1. Data showed as mean ± SD, (*) showed significant effect compared to control, ( +) comparison with the diazinon-treated group. p < 0.05 and (***) or (+ +  + +) p < 0.001. DZN caused a significant reduction in the percentage and number of TCD4+, TCD8+, and NK cells. However, in the presence of CH, it could somehow neutralise the effect of DZN and increase the percentage and the number of immune cells.
