GSH content was expressed as nM of GSH/mg of protein.

^†

SOD 1 U is the amount of enzyme required for 50% inhibition of pyrogallol auto-oxidation.

^‡

Catalase 1 U is the enzyme that consumes 1 nmole H₂O₂/minute.

^§

GST 1 U represents the enzyme that conjugates 1 μmole CDNB/min.

^||

LPO was expressed as TBA reactants (nM)/mg of protein.

^¶ Statistical significance was obtained when different concentrations of mangiferin-treated groups were compared with the control group.

p < 0.05.

CAT, catalase; Group I, control group; Group II, 50 μM mangiferin group; Group III, 70 μM mangiferin group; Group IV, 90 μM mangiferin group; GSH, glutathione; GST, glutathione-S-transferase; LPO, lipid peroxidation; SOD, superoxide dismutase.
