Table 2.

Protein carbonyl levels and GSH content in mice exposed to cadmium chloride (CdCl₂; 2 mg/kg i.p.) plus vehicle, as compared to mice exposed to CdCl₂ (2 mg/kg i.p.) plus flavocoxid (20 mg/kg/day i.p.) or to control mice treated with vehicle or flavocoxid alone.

	Protein carbonyls (μmol/mg protein)	GSH (μmol/g tissue)
Control + vehicle	0.004 ± 0.001	70 ± 3
Control + flavocoxid	0.005 ± 0.001	72 ± 4
CdCl2 + vehicle	0.009 ± 0.002a	52 ± 6a
CdCl2 + flavocoxid	0.006 ± 0.001b	66 ± 5b

All the values are expressed as mean ± SE, n = 7 animals for each group. ^ap < 0.05 versus both controls; ^bp < 0.05 versus CdCl₂ + vehicle.
