Epicatechin Reduces Striatal MPP⁺-Induced Damage in Rats through Slight Increases in SOD-Cu,Zn Activity

Figure 4

Effect of EC administration on the reduction in Cu/Zn-SOD activity MPP⁺-induced. The infusion of MPP⁺ statistically reduced Cu/Zn-SOD activity (white bars). The Mn-SOD activity did not change among groups (black bars). The results are expressed as mean ± S.E.M. of 6–8 animals per group. , two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test.
