| Group | SOD (U/mg prot) | MDA (nmol/mg prot) |
|---|---|---|
| NC | 67.26 ± 2.21 | 3.02 ± 0.03 |
| HC | 48.71 ± 2.11 ## | 4.44 ± 0.38 # |
| LDS | 44.25 ± 4.12 | 3.30 ± 0.23 * |
| MDS | 59.34 ± 6.07 | 3.18 ± 0.16 * |
| HDS | 53.83 ± 6.03 | 2.86 ± 0.36 * |
SOD, Superoxide dismutase; MDA, malondialdehyde. Results were expressed as means ± standard error of the mean (n = 8–10). # p < 0.05, ## p < 0.01 compared with the NC group; * p < 0.05 compared with the HC group.
