Effects of Treating Old Rats with an Aqueous Agaricus blazei Extract on Oxidative and Functional Parameters of the Brain Tissue and Brain Mitochondria
Figure 1
Total antioxidant capacity of the brain homogenates from young, old, and A. blazei-treated old rats. The brain homogenate was prepared as described in Section 2. The ABTS assay was used to evaluate the antioxidant capacity of the brain homogenate. The bars represent the mean ± mean standard errors of 5 (young), 8 (old), and 5 (A. blazei-treated) rats. The asterisk () indicates for the comparison between (1) and (2) and (2) and (3), according to ANOVA followed by Student-Newman-Keuls post hoc testing.
