Fig. 2. Basal and post-stressed parameters related to the antioxidant response were measured in muscle tissue of mice immediately and after 24 h of a recovery period.
The three groups were the control (white columns), hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning (HBOP, black columns), and hyperbaric oxygen session after the stress event (HBOA, grey columns). Subgroups: B, basal; F, fasting (mild stress); E, prolonged exercise (hard stress). B24, F24, and E24: corresponding recovery subgroups. Values are expressed as the mean ± SD. GSH, glutathione; pGSH, plasma GSH; CAT, catalase; SOD, superoxide dismutase; GPx, glutathione peroxidase; GR, glutathione reductase. *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 compared to the corresponding control inside each subgroup. &p < 0.05 and &&p < 0.01 compared to the other experimental group inside each subgroup.
