Effect of Melastoma malabathricum Linn. (MM) on CFA induced arthritic rats. Arthritic was assessed in terms of modulation of (a) MDA, (b) GPx, (c) SOD and (d) GSH as described in Materials and methods. ns = non-significant, CFA = Complete Freund Adjuvant, NC = Normal Control, AC = Arthritic Control, MDA = Malonaldehyde, GPx = Glutathione peroxidase, SOD = Superoxide dismutase, GSH = Glutathione. The comparisons were made by ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s test. *P < 0.05 is considered as significant, **P < 0.01 is considered as very significant, ***P < 0.001 is considered as extremely significant
