Oxidative stress parameters in the leukocytes of normonutrition and disease-related malnutrition subjects according to the presence of inflammation. a Levels of total ROS measured by DCFH-DA fluorescence and expressed as percentage of control (b) Levels of glutathione measured by CMFDA fluorescence and expressed as percentage of control (c) Levels of mitochondrial membrane potential measured by TMRM and expressed as percentage of control (d) Oxygen consumption. DRM-I: disease-related malnutrition without inflammation; DRM + I: disease-related malnutrition with inflammation, DCFH-DA: 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate; CMFDA: 5-chloromethylfluorescein diacetate; NN: normonutrition; TMRM: tetramethylrhodamine methylester. *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 vs NN group, # p < 0.05 vs DRM-I using one-way ANOVA with Student–Newman–Keuls post-hoc test
