2 Figure 1 Percentage of body weight gain (A), plasma insulin levels (B), catalase (C), and GSH (D) liver levels in animals submitted to chronic intake of 20% glucose solution. Effects of oral treatment with tempol (50 and 100 mg/kg). Columns represent the mean of 5 experiments, and vertical lines indicate the standard error of mean. *,#P < .05, **,##P < .01. p.o., by mouth.

3 Figure 2 Extension of radiographic area of periapical lesions (A). Columns represent the mean of 5 animals (in duplicate), and vertical lines indicate the standard error of mean. Representative radiographic images of periapical lesions in control animals (B) or in glucose-fed rats (C). Effects of treatment with the antioxidant tempol at 50 mg/kg (D) and 100 mg/kg (E), respectively. Arrowheads, radiolucent areas indicating periapical lesions.
