Involvement of reactive oxygen species in Microcystin-LR-induced cytogenotoxicity.

abstract：:Pyruvate is a well-known scavenger of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). In addition, it scavenges superoxide radical (O2.-). However, evidence on its intracellular antioxidant function is meager at present. Hence, we have examined the effectiveness of this metabolite and its ethyl ester against intracellular oxidative damage ...
