Effects of TP, TP-SLNs, and TP-NLCs on (A) MDA level and (B) SOD activity in the serum of male rats after a 4-week treatment period.
Notes: Each value represents the mean ± SD (n=6); *P<0.05; ***P<0.001 compared to control group; #P<0.05 compared to TP group at the same level (low or high).
Abbreviations: MDA, malonyldialdehyde; SD, standard deviation; SOD, superoxide dismutase; TP, triptolide; TP-NLCs, triptolide-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers; TP-SLNs, triptolide-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles.
