**4.13 Caspase 3 activities in ovarian thecal cells**

Caspase 3 activity was assayed in the ovarian thecal cells upon cannabis treatment. We noted a significant increase of caspase 3 in the thecal cells in dose dependent manner being highest in 12 mg/100 g of body weight dose (*P* < 0.01) in comparison to control. Further, among the treated groups, group 3 presented the highest level of caspase 3 activity (*P* < 0.01).
