The aim of our study was to evaluate oxidative stress in hepatic mitochondria of rats exposed for 12 weeks alone and in conjunction to cadmium (Cd) (50 mg Cd/dm3, in drinking water) and ethanol (EtOH) (5g of EtOH/kg body wt, intragastrically). In hepatic mitochondria the concentrations of malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), reduced glutathione (GSH) and the activities of manganese superoxide...
The effect of cadmium on microsomal membrane-bound peroxidases and their involvement in hydrogen peroxide production was studted in barley roots. One anionic and two cationic peroxidases were detected, which were strongly activated by Cd treatment. Positive correlation was found between root growth inhibition and increased peroxidase, NADH oxidase activity and H2O2 generation in root microsomal membrane...
Short-term treatment of potato tuber (Solanum tuberosum L.) dises with CdCl₂ (1mM) induced an oxidative stress, manifested by higher levels of H₂O₂, and activated the synthesis of phytochclatins ((γ-Glu-Cys)n-Gly): PC₂, PC₃ and PC₄. If in the tissues with a lower GSH level, the oxidative stress was induced by treatment with 3-aminotriazol (AT), or with AT and H₂O₂, the elevation of H₂O₂ and GSH levels...
