The relation of high fat diet, metabolic disturbances and brain oxidative dysfunction: modulation by hydroxy citric acid

Table 2 Means of brain catalase, MDA and Nitric oxide levels in different groups of rats (3 months).

*Groups Parameters*	Control	HFD	HFD+G
Brain Catalase (U/gm)	5.1 ± 0.69^a	12.2 ± 0.63^b	10.3 ± 0.32^b
Brain MDA (nmol/g)	2.6 ± 0.24a	5.7 ± 0.31^b	4.9 ± 0.61^c
Brain Nitric oxide	1.3 ± 0.08^a	0.8 ± 0.11^b	1.1 ± 0.12 ^ab

In brain tissues, MDA level and catalase activities were significantly increased in HFD compared with control group and treatment with G. Cambogia ameliorated these changes (Table 2).
Values are statically analyzed by one way ANOVA and reported as means ± SEM.
Means have different letters indicate significant variation at (P ≤ 0.05), while the same letters indicate non significant variation
