Activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) in the eye lens of WNIN/Ob rats of different age. Data are mean±SE (n=6). Different superscripts denote that data are significantly different between lean and obese rats at the respective age. Specific activity was expressed as Units/100 mg protein (SOD) or μmoles NADPH oxidized/h/100mg protein (GPx) or μmoles NADP reduced/h/100 mg protein (G6PD) or μmoles GSH-CDNB conjugate formed/h/100 mg protein (GST).
