Curcumin Pretreatment Prevents Potassium Dichromate-Induced Hepatotoxicity, Oxidative Stress, Decreased Respiratory Complex I Activity, and Membrane Permeability Transition Pore Opening

Figure 9

Curcumin prevents the K₂Cr₂O₇-induced decrease in the activity of mitochondrial complex I. Values are mean ± SEM, 𝑛= 6-7. ^a𝑃<0.05versus control; ^b𝑃<0.05 versus K₂Cr₂O₇ (24 h); ^c𝑃<0.05versus K₂Cr₂O₇ (48 h).
