Respective effect of Parkia biglobosa leaf extract (PBE) and catechin on basal ROS production (a and b), Ca2+ − induced (c and d) and SNP-induced (e and f) aggravation of ROS generation in isolated rats’ liver mitochondria. Data is presented as mean ± SEM of three assays performed in triplicates using independent mitochondrial preparations. a PBE 25-, 50-, 100 μg/ml (P < 0.001 vs Control), (b) Cat 1-, 5-, 10 μg/ml non-significant vs control (P > 0.05), (c) Ca2+ 80 μM, PBE 100 μg/ml (P < 0.001 vs control), (d) Ca2+80 μM, Cat 10 μg/ml (P < 0.01 vs control), (e) SNP (P < 0.01 vs control), PBE 25 μg/ml (P < 0.05 vs control), (f) SNP (P < 0.001 vs control)
