  1. Results are presented as a percent change from control values, Mean ± SEM, n = 4 per group. The increase in LDH release evident in DPPH treated IEC-18 cells (*P < 0.05 vs. control) was significantly reduced by cat's claw (11.6 ± 6.7%) or green tea (11.3 ± 3.9%), P < 0.05 compared to DPPH treatment alone, but not by vitamin C (29.3 ± 6.0%).
