Figure 4From: Effect of flaxseed supplementation and exercise training on lipid profile, oxidative stress and inflammation in rats with myocardial ischemiaIL-1β and TNF-α levels measured in plasma of the different studied rat groups. IL-1β increased markedly after ischemia in plasma. Treatment with flaxseed separately and in combination with exercise attenuated the increase in IL-1β levels. TNF-α levels increased after ischemia in plasma. Treatment with flaxseed separately and in combination with exercise attenuated the increase in TNF-α level. Data from plasma of ten rats in each group are shown as mean ± S.D.Back to article page
