The changes of oxygen free radicals in isoproterenol-induced myocardial infarction and its significance / 中国病理生理杂志

ABSTRACT

The MDA contents, SOD and. GSH-Px activities of the heart, liver, brain, kidney and serum were observed systematically in isoprotercnol-induced myocardial infarction. The results suggested that the MDA contents, SOD and GSH-Px activities were increased in ischemic myocardium. Oxygen free radicals exerted detrimental effects on vitals organs, and also was accompanied by a compensatory increase of SOD and GSH-Px activities.
