MDA level in LS obtained from the control, SMV-, MS- and SMV-MS-administered rats incubated without an oxidation inductor (LPO spontaneous) (a) or with Fe_exg30𝜇M (FeSO₄) (b), V_{exg100,200,400𝜇M} (NaVO₃) (c, d, e), or Mg_{exg100,200,400𝜇M} (MgSO₄) (f, g, h). Differences are indicated by ^a,b,c,dversus control, SMV-intoxicated, MS-supplemented, and SMV-MS-administered rats, respectively (¹Tukey’s and ²T3 Dunnett’s test). ^∗𝑃<0.05, ^‡𝑃<0.01, ^†𝑃<0.001, ^∗∗𝑃=0.07, ^#𝑃=0.09, ^##𝑃=0.13. Numerical values in the bars or above them indicate the percentage of the decrease in the MDA level (↓), compared with the control (underline bold) and the SMV-intoxicated (normal alone) rats; other numerical values in the bars indicate the percentage of the increase in the MDA level (↑), compared with the control (bold alone) and the MS-supplemented (bold italic) animals.
