Table 1.

Malondialdehyde levels and antioxidant enzyme activities in hepatic tissues of non-diabetic and alloxan-induced diabetic mice.

Group MDA (μmol/g Tissue) CAT (U/µg Protein) SOD (U/µg Protein)
Diabetic control 57.43 ± 3.48 a 1.92 ± 0.18 a 0.42 ± 0.02 a
Non-diabetic 33.50 ± 4.23 b 1.88 ± 0.23 a 1.42 ± 0.06 b
d + Insulin (0.7 IU/kg) 61.13 ± 3.58 a 2.01 ± 0.16 a 1.20 ± 0.04 c
d + Mo-LPI (500 mg/kg) 27.78 ± 2.15 b 3.01 ± 0.35 b 0.38 ± 0.02 a

Values are means ± S.E.M. (n = 10). Diabetic control: vehicle (0.05 M Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, containing 0.15 M NaCl); Non-diabetic: vehicle (0.05 M Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, containing 0.15 M NaCl); d + insulin: diabetic mice + rapid-acting human recombinant insulin (0.7 IU/kg·bw, Novorapid®); d + Mo-LPI: diabetic mice + Mo-LPI (500 mg/kg·bw). Different letters in the same column indicate significant differences (p < 0.05) when compared with the corresponding value of the diabetic control.
