Fig. 7From: Interplay between nitric oxide and gonadotrophin-releasing hormone in the neuromodulation of the corpus luteum during late pregnancy in the ratGanglionic effect of L-NAME on luteal markers of oxidative/nitrosative damage and total antioxidant capacity. A Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) concentration, expressed as μmol MDA/mg protein. B Nitrotyrosine content, expressed in arbitrary units. C Total antioxidant capacity (TAC), measured as percentage of inhibition of the ABTS●+. The values represent the mean ± S.E.M. of 6 animals per experimental group. Student’s unpaired t test: (●) P < 0.01; (*) P < 0.05Back to article page
