Effect of GNPs on glutathione (GSH), nitrite/nitrate, and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in splenic homogenate of mice infected with S. mansoni.

Group	Splenic GSH (mg/g)	Splenic nitrite/nitrate (μmol/g)	Splenic MDA (nmol/g)
Non-infected (-GNPs)	52.32 ± 1.89	96.58 ± 2.33	28.31 ± 1.24
Infected (-GNPs)	16.26 ± 1.05^a	243.6 ± 3.24^a	79.68 ± 2.00^a
Infected (+1 mg/kg GNPs)	26.91 ± 1.95^ab	189.2 ± 2.59^ab	58.07 ± 2.23^ab
Infected (+PZQ)	22.69 ± 1.23^ab	200.4 ± 4.89^ab	53.72 ± 3.39^ab

Values are means ± SE. a: Significant against (non-infected) control group at P ⩽ 0.05, b: Significant against infected control group at P ⩽ 0.05, n = 6.
