Hemin-induced augment of SOD activity and reduction of MDA, H2O2, IL-6, MPO and TNF-α production in lung in rats with OALT. The NF-κB downstream inflammation cytokines TNF-α (a) and IL-6 (b) were detected by ELISA assay. MPO (c), H2O2 (d), Malonaldehyde (MDA) (e) and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) (f) in the lung tissue were detected by assay kits. The results were expressed as the mean ± SD, n = 8 per group. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, one-way ANOVA with Tukey test
