Summary of animal research focusing on oxidative stress.

No.	Strain	Sex	Age	Physical Activity	Stress Model	Main Outcome	Reference
1	C57/B16J	female	8 weeks	voluntary wheel running	restraint stress	Enhanced expression of proapoptotic Bax protein in the mouse cortex and microglia/macrophage expression of Cox-2 in the hippocampus	[116]
2	Wistar	male	45–48 days	treadmill	sleep deprivation	increased protein expression of GLO1 and GSR1 in the amygdala, cortex, and hippocampus; ameliorated anxiety-like behaviour	[115]
3	Wistar	male	3 weeks	treadmill	chronic stress restraint and forced swim stress	improved aversive memory and oxidative status changes in the amygdala and hippocampus, Na+, K+-ATPase activity in the hippocampus	[117]

GLO1—glyoxalase 1; GSR1—glutathione reductase 1; LC—locus coeruleus.
