Effect of water extract (CLW) from Curcuma longa L. on antioxidant status in high-fat diet-fed mice. (A) Catalase (CAT) activity, (B) superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, (C) glutathione-S-transferase (GST) activity, (D) glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity, (E) glutathione reductase (GR) activity, (F) reduced glutathione (GSH) level, (G) malondialdehyde (MDA) level in the livers of different groups. Data are expressed as mean ± S.E. (n = 10), and different letters indicate significant differences (p < 0.05) as determined via Duncan’s multiple range test. CON, normal control diet; HF, 60% high-fat diet; C-LOW, 60% high-fat diet plus 300 mg/kg b.w./day of CLW; C-HIGH, 60% high-fat diet plus 900 mg/kg b.w./day of CLW; SILY, 60% high-fat diet plus 50 mg/kg b.w./day of silymarin.
