Effect of transplantation of human fetal tissues on prooxidant-antioxidant equilibrium in the liver and blood rats after partial hepatectomy in rats.

We studied the effect of transplantation of fetal liver cells and postnuclear cytoplasmic fraction from human fetal soft tissues on the prooxidant-antioxidant equilibrium in the liver and blood of rats after partial hepatectomy. The preparations increased antioxidant activity and decreased the intensity of lipid peroxidation, which probably contributes to their therapeutic effects.
