Changes in means of malondialdehyde (MDA), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and glutathione (GSH) levels (m. mol/L) in the different study groups.

Group	MDA (m. mol/L)	TAC (m. mol/L)	Glutathione (m. mol/L)
NG	0.08 ± 0.01	44.59 ± 0.22	30.03 ± 1.07 A
CG	0.82 ± 0.04	12.99 ± 0.47	10.63 ± 0.75
CBG	0.62 ± 0.01	30.64 ± 0.50	19.03 ± 0.45
CMG	0.48 ± 0.07	34.9 ± 0.85	23.47 ± 0.55
CMBG	0.22 ± 0.1	40.21 ± 0.38	30.13 ± 0.80 A
LSD	0.041	0.747	1.071

Data are expressed as mean for six-sampled group ± SE. All groups have statistically significant (p ≤ 0.05) difference between means, except for groups with the same letter in the same column. The groups are: the normal control group (NG); the Cis group (CG); the group treated with Cis+ beetroot extract (CBG); the group treated with Cis+ mesenchymal stem cells (CMG); and the group treated with Cis+ mesenchymal stem cells + beetroot extract (CMBG). The least significant difference (LSD) values were 0.041, 0.747, and 1.071.
