Activities of alkaline phosphatase (a), glutathione S-transferase (b), and reduced glutathione (c) in the placenta. Placental MDA content (d) and MDA/GST ratios (e) in pregnant rats from different experimental groups. Legend: Control (C), Leucine (L), Walker tumour-bearing rats (W), tumour-bearing rats fed a leucine-rich diet (WL), ascitic fluid-injected rats (A) and ascitic fluid-injected rats fed a leucine-rich diet (LA). The results are expressed as the mean and standard error. * P < 0.05 accounted by tumour effect, two-way ANOVA with Bonferroni testing, n = 10. # P < 0.05 accounted by interaction between tumour/ascitic with diet effect, two-way ANOVA with Bonferroni testing, n = 10
