  1. Values are means ± SEM; Number of animals at post-treatment was 10. Number of animals in each group at post-treatment for soybean oil and canola oil was 9 and 8, respectively. SOD, superoxide dismutase; GPx, glutathione peroxidase; MDA, malondialdehyde.
  2. *P < 0.05 represents a significant difference between canola and soybean oil groups;
  3. #P < 0.05 represents a significant difference between pre-treatment vs post-treatment.
