Effect of Chronic Administration of Resveratrol on Cognitive Performance during Aging Process in Rats

Figure 1

Resveratrol antioxidant effect on the hippocampus: (a) Nitrite levels. Analyzed through Griess method, the nitrite decrease observed is dose-dependent. (b) MDA + 4-HAD levels. It can be observed that resveratrol concentration increment to 10 mg/kg gives the best antioxidant activity. (c) MDA level. The optimum decrease is presented in doses of 10 mg/kg. The lipid peroxidation index was determined by the Gérard-Monnier. The data are means ± standard error of the mean SEM for rats. Significantly different from the vehicle group (one-way ANOVA). #Significantly different from the group 10 mg/kg/weight (ANOVA, Tukey’s method).
