Curcumin Supplementation Decreases Intestinal Adiposity Accumulation, Serum Cholesterol Alterations, and Oxidative Stress in Ovariectomized Rats

Figure 3

Effects of ovariectomy and curcumin supplementation on blood, liver, and serum thiol reduced content and oxidative damage markers. Proteic and nonproteic SH content, protein carbonyls groups, and lipid peroxidation were analyzed in blood (a), liver (b), and serum (c) samples. Data are expressed by mean ± SEM (sham , OVX , OVX 50 , and OVX 100 ) and the experiments were performed in triplicate. Statistical difference from sham group: , . Statistical difference from OVX group: , (one-way ANOVA followed by the post hoc Tukey’s test).
