Effects of cysteamine on oxidative status in cerebral cortex of rats.

abstract：:Mitochondrial glutathione (mGSH) is a critical factor in the cell defense against oxidative and nitrosative stress (ONS), and ONS is a key pathogenic event in hepatic encephalopathy (HE). Acute HE in the thioacetamide (TAA) model caused a 54 % decrease of mGSH content in the rat prefrontal cortex (pfc), but not in the...
