Group 1: the control group; Group 2: 20 µg/kg leptin; Group 3: 2 g/kg paracetamol; Group 4: 2 g/kg paracetamol + 10 µg/kg leptin; Group 5: 2 g/kg paracetamol + 20 µg/kg leptin. LEP: the group receiving leptin, PARA: the group receiving paracetamol. Malonaldehyde (MDA) levels and the glutathione (GSH).
