The effects of maackiain on renal oxidative stress and antioxidant status in HFD & low STZ induced diabetic rats. (A) Lipid peroxidation product malondialdehyde (MDA) levels; (B) Reduced glutathione (GSH) content; (C) Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity levels; (D) Catalase (CAT) activity levels in experimental rats kidney; (E) mRNA levels of Nrf2, Keap1, Nqo1, Ho-1, Gclc, Gpx in experimental rats kidney. The data were expressed as the mean ± S.D, n=6, **p < 0.001 and *p < 0.05 versus NC; ^^p<0.001 and ^p< 0.05 versus DC.

Abbreviations: NC, normal control; DC, diabetic control; DC+10 maackiain, 10 mg/kg/bw maackiain treated diabetic rats; DC+20: 20 maackiain, 20 mg/kg/bw maackiain treated diabetic rats.
