Table 1: Illustrates the effect of kolaviron on erythrocyte enzymatic activities and plasma lipid peroxidation in diabetic and normoglycemic rats. CAT: catalase, 𝜇mol H₂O₂ consumed/min/mg protein, SOD: superoxide dismutase, U/𝜇g protein, GPX: glutathione peroxidase, 𝜇mol NADPH oxidized/min/𝜇g protein, MDA: malondialdehyde, (𝜇mol MDA/L). Data are presented as mean ± S.D. ^aValues differ significantly from normal control (𝑃<0.05). ^bValues differ significantly from diabetic control (𝑃<0.05). NC: normal control; KV: normal control treated with kolaviron; DM: untreated diabetic rats; DM + KV: diabetic rats treated with kolaviron.
