Effect of resveratrol on the total and soluble protein content in the lens in diabetic rats.

Parameter/Group	C	D	D+R10	D+R20
Total protein (mg/g lens)	563.2 ± 33.2	536.4 ± 43.6	511.5 ± 13.4	559.8 ± 26.9
Soluble protein (mg/g lens)	443.8 ± 8.4	408.5 ± 13.9 *	453.5 ± 8.6 ^	428.0 ± 12.0

C—control, non-diabetic rats; D—diabetic rats; D+R10—diabetic rats receiving resveratrol (10 mg/kg po for 4 weeks); D+R20—diabetic rats receiving resveratrol (20 mg/kg po for 4 weeks). Results are presented as means ± SEM (n = 8–9). * p < 0.05 – statistically significantly different from the C group. ^ p < 0.05 – statistically significantly different from the D group.
