Effect of RESV on the levels of cerebral lipid peroxidation products and antioxidant activity in experimental neonatal rats.

Group	GPx (µg/mg protein)	SOD (U/mg protein) a	CAT (U/mg protein) b	MDA (nmol/mg protein)
Sham-control	8.53 ± 1.05	3.45 ± 0.28	62.80 ± 5.05	0.48 ± 0.07
HI induced	5.22 ± 0.63a**	2.55 ± 0.18a**	51.24 ± 4.46a**	0.82 ± 0.04a**
RESV 20 + HI	6.49 ± 0.5b*	3.05 ± 0.15b*	55.23 ± 6.34b*	0.69 ± 0.06b*
RESV 40 + HI	7.78 ± 0.75b**	3.25 ± 0.15b**	59.74 ± 6.34b**	0.57 ± 0.07b**

Data are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation (SD). p value: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, Where ‘a’ represent the comparison with the sham control group; ‘b’ represent the comparison with the HI-insulted group.

^aU (One unit) represents the amount of SOD required for inhibiting 50% of O₂ ⁻ at 550 nm.

^bU (One unit) represents the amount of CAT required for inhibiting 50% of H₂O₂ at 405 nm.

RESV: Resveratrol; HI: hypoxia-ischemia; U: units; SOD: superoxide dismutase; CAT: catalase; GSH: glutathione; MDA: malondialdehyde.
