Figure 5

Prevention by DDTC of CCl4-induced lipid peroxidation and GSH moderate depletion. Mice were treated or not treated for 3 h with 1.5 ml CCl4, with or without pretreatment with DDTC. Lipid peroxidation was assessed by (a) TBARs measurement and (b) immunohistochemistry using an anti-MDA antibody. (c) GSH was measured in liver homogenates and results are expressed as nmol/mg protein. Data are mean±s.e.m. for 18–28 mice per group. *Significantly different from control mice (P<0.05). #Significantly different from CCl4-treated mice (P<0.05).
