Effect of rutin and quercetin on malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the spinal cord. The mice received two intravenous injections of OXL (1 mg/kg) per week for 4.5 weeks for a total of nine OXL injections. Rutin and quercetin (50 mg/kg) were injected intraperitoneally 30 min before every OXL administration. The control group received saline instead of rutin and quercetin. Fourteen days after the first dose, a portion of the spinal cord was collected and processed to measure MDA levels. The results are expressed as mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05, compared with saline plus oxaliplatin-treated group; #p < 0.05, compared with naïve (C) group (ANOVA followed by Student Newman-Keuls post hoc test).
