Figure 4

Effect of CCB, metformin and their combination on redox status. (a) Representative photographs of immunohistochemical staining of NOX2 (brown-stained) (scale bar 20 μm) and immunoreactivity score. (b) Representative photographs of immunohistochemical staining of NOX4 (brown-stained) (scale bar 20 μm) and immunoreactivity score. (c) Percentage levels of ROS relative to the control condition. (d) Percentage levels of carbonyl groups relative to the control condition (ZL). Means ± SD of 6–8 samples per condition. Means without a common letter differ significantly. Zucker lean (ZL), Zucker Diabetic rats (ZDF), Zucker Diabetic rats treated with metformin (ZDF (M)), Zucker Diabetic rats fed with a CCB rich-diet (ZDF (CCB)), and Zucker Diabetic rats treated with metformin and fed with a CCB rich-diet (ZDF (CCB + M)).
