Effect of curcumin on (A) MDA, (B) PC, (C) T-SH, (D) NP-SH, and (E) P-SH concentrations and on (F) MnSOD activity in the hepatic mitochondrial fraction of broilers reared under heat stress. The results are expressed as the mean ± SE (n = 8). Columns labeled with different letters are significantly different (P < 0.05). NT group = broilers fed a basal diet at a normal temperature (22 ± 1 °C); HT group = broilers fed a basal diet at a high ambient temperature (34 ± 1 °C for 8 h and 22 ± 1 °C for the remaining time); CUR50 group = broilers fed a basal diet with 50-mg/kg curcumin at a high ambient temperature (34 ± 1 °C for 8 h and 22 ± 1 °C for the remaining time); CUR100 group = broilers fed a basal diet with 100-mg/kg curcumin at a high ambient temperature (34 ± 1 °C for 8 h and 22 ± 1 °C for the remaining time); CUR200 group = broilers fed a basal diet with 200-mg/kg curcumin at a high ambient temperature (34 ± 1 °C for 8 h and 22 ± 1 °C for the remaining time).
