Protective Effect of Solanum nigrum Leaves Extract on Immobilization Stress Induced Changes in Rat’s Brain
Figure 3
Effect of treatment with S. nigrum on immobilization stress induced changes in brain tissue levels. The decrease in GSH content was observed with a significant increase in MDA after the immobilization stress. The pre- and poststress treatment of S. nigrum extract resulted in a significant increase in GSH content with a decrease in MDA. The poststress treatment of extract was found more effective than prestress treatment in combatting the oxidative stress induced changes. * shows values compared with controls, while # shows values compared with stressed rats, where * <0.05 and # <0.05.
