Fig. 4. Assessment of protein oxidative stress, serum free fatty acids, serum insulin levels, and HOMA-IR.

Fig. 4

A) Protein peroxidation in the ischemic territory was significantly higher in the HCD group (*P=0.03). B) The concentration of free fatty acids was increased significantly in the HCD group compared to the control and HCD-R groups. The concentration in the HCD-R group was significantly lower than in the HCD group (†P<0.001, ‡P<0.05). C) Fasting serum levels of insulin were significantly elevated in the HCD group, and decreased in the HCD-R group (§P=0.002, ‡P<0.05). D) HOMA-IR scores were higher in the HCD group and significantly lower in the HCD-R group as compared to the HCD group (**P=0.02, ‡P<0.5). E) Levels of C-reactive protein were increased in the HCD group and significantly lowered in the HCD-R group (**P=0.04). F) Serum concentration of TNFα were significantly lower in the control group as compared to the HCD and HCD-R groups (††P=0.002).
