Table 3

The phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxide (PC-OOH) level of the liver and brain in mice.

(pmol/g lipid)		CON	ALC	CUR
PC-OOH*	Liver	286 ± 35^b	366 ± 58^a	157 ± 44^c
	Brain	44.4 ± 12.9	53.0 ± 20.0	40.8 ± 5.9

All values are means ± SD. *was calculated by total lipid, which was extracted with triglyceride and total cholesterol concentrations. a−cindicates significant differences between values in the same row (𝑃<0.05).
CON: high-fat diet; ALC: high-fat diet and alcohol treated; CUR: curcumin containing high-fat diet and alcohol treated.
