Papaya improves non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in obese rats by attenuating oxidative stress, inflammation and lipogenic gene expression

Figure 2 Effects of papaya on antioxidant activities in liver tissue. A: Lipid peroxidation in the liver; B: Activity of catalase (CAT) in the liver; C: Activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the liver. Data are expressed as mean ± SE of the mean (n = 6-7). ^aP < 0.05, ^bP < 0.01, ^cP < 0.001 vs control (C), and ^dP < 0.05, ^fP < 0.001 vs high fat diet (HFD) group. HFH: High fat diet treated with 1 mL of papaya juice/100 g body weight; HFL: High fat diet treated with 0.5 mL of papaya juice/100 g body weight; MDA: Malondialdehyde.
