Comparison of aldose reductase, malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in lens of all groups. C: control group; DM + vehicle: diabetic rats (DM) which received vehicle; DM + MPO (2 mg/kg·BW): diabetic rats (DM) which received MPO at doses of 2 mg/kg·BW; DM + MPO (10 mg/kg·BW): diabetic rats (DM) which received MPO at doses of 10 mg/kg·BW; DM + MPO (50 mg/kg·BW): diabetic rats (DM) which received MPO at doses of 50 mg/kg·BW (). #,##,### value < .05, .01, and .001, respectively, compared with control group and value < .05, .01, and .001, respectively, compared with diabetic rats which received vehicle (DM + vehicle).
