- Group I (non diabetic), group II (diabetic), group III (diabetic treated with curcumin); Values are mean ± SD of 8 rats; TBARS: thiobarbituric acid reactive substances; CAT: catalase; SOD: superoxide dismutase; GST: glutathione-S transferase; GSH: reduced glutathione.
- *Mean values are significantly (P < 0.05) different compare to the control (group I). #Mean values are significantly (P < 0.05) different compare to diabetic rats (group II).
