Table 2.

Effect of AP1 on the oxidative stress markers, including the activities of catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and the level of malondialdehyde (MDA). Data are presented as mean ± SEM. a p value < 0.05, compared to the control group. aaa p value < 0.001, compared to the control group. p value < 0.05, ∗∗ p value < 0.005, and ∗∗∗ p value < 0.001, compared to the VPA-treated group that received the vehicle.
