Effect of carnosine supplementation on antioxidant system in retinas from animals undergoing a high-calorie diet. Values are means + \- standard error of the mean (SEM); groups: SD, standard diet; SD + Car, standard diet + carnosine; HcD, high-calorie diet; HcD + Car, high high-calorie diet + carnosine. Carnosine 250 mg / (Kg body wt /day) or saline IP for 4 wks; Total antioxidant capacity (TAC) (a), total GSH activity (b), and glutathione (GSH)/oxidized glutathione (GSSG) ratio (c). One-way ANOVA, followed by the Newman-Keuls test, used to analyze the treatment effects (p < 0.05)
