ABSTRACT
Objective To study the antagonistic effect of N-acetyl-L-cysteine(NAC)and ?-lipoic acid(LA)to the oxidative damage in the liver and kidney of rats induced by the condensate of cooking oil fume(COF).Methods SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups,8 in each,the blank control,COF group(10 ml/kg,subcutaneous injection),COF plus NAC(2 mmol/kg, intraperitoneal injection)and COF plus LA(0.35 mmol/kg,intraperitoneal injection).Forty-eight hours after treatment,the activity of SOD,GSH-Px and MDA level in the livers and kidneys were determined.Results In the kidney,compared with the COF group, both of NAC and LA could increase the activity of kidney SOD and GSH-Px and decreased the MDA level significantly,the same results were seen in the liver.Conclusion Both of N-aeetyl-L-cysteine and ?-lipoic acid has an obvious antagonistic effect to the oxidative damage in the liver and kidney of rats induced by the condensates of cooking oil fume.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the antagonistic effects of grape procyanidin(GPC)or lipoic acid(LA)to the rat liver cell peroxidative damage induced by~(60)Co ? radiation.Methods The cultured rat liver cells(1?10~9/L)were prepared from 10 rats aged 1 week,the survival rate was above 85%.The cultured liver cells were divided into the negative control group(without radiation), GPC group(75 mg/L),LA group(100 mg/L)and the positive control group(containing no antioxidants),which were radiated by (60)~Co ? radiation(2.5 Gy,90 cm,10 s).The SOD,GSH-Px activity,MDA level and comet assay were determined.Results Compared with the positive control group,in the GPC group and LA group,the activity of hepatic SOD and GSH-Px were significantly higher (P
