Table 3.
Percentage of oxidation inhibition in the blood plasma and aorta from the SG, SG50, SG150, and SG500 groups.
| Groups | Oxidation inhibition (%) | |
|---|---|---|
| Plasma | Aorta | |
| SG | 50 ± 5 | 12 ± 4 |
| SG50 | 54 ± 4 | 14 ± 2 |
| SG150 | 62 ± 3 | 17 ± 2 |
| SG500 | 70 ± 2∗#† | 27 ± 2∗#† |
The values represent the mean and S.D., respectively (n = 10 indicates the number of samples per treatment). Sedentary saline group (SG) and sedentary groups supplemented with S. platensis at 50 mg/kg (SG50), 150 mg/kg (SG150), and 500 mg/kg (SG500). Two-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni's posttest, ∗p < 0.05 (SG vs. groups), #p < 0.05 (SG50 vs. SG150 and SG500), †p < 0.01 (SG150 vs. SG500).
