Effects of THA and Silymarin on GSH levels and antioxidant enzyme activities (CAT, SOD, and GPx) in livers of treated mice and of control mice

Groups	GSH (µmol/mg protein)	CAT (mmol/min/mg protein)	SOD (U SOD/mg protein)	GPx (µmol/min/mg protein)
Control group	34.14±0.12^a	8.31±0.29^a	10.08±0.26^a	33.35±2.00^a
CCl₄	24.65±0.14	5.33±0.46	6.64±0.13	23.14±1.80
THA	30.72±0.18^a	7.87±0.31^a	8.45±0.45^a	34.68±1.10^a
THA + CCl₄	31.14±0.14^a	8.17±0.27^a	9.18±0.65^a	29.92±1.30^a
Silymarin	32.06±0.22^a	7.70±0.33^a	10.27±0.39^a	32.79±1.42^a
Silymarin + CCl₄	29.82±0.15^a	7.43±0.15^a	14.01±0.73^a	31.97±1.50^a

Note: GSH, reduced glutathione; CAT, catalase; SOD, superoxide dismutase; GPx, glutathione peroxidase. Values are mean±SD (n=6).

p<0.01 compared to the CCl₄-treated mice.
