Effect of chronic ethanol treatment on oxidant-induced changes in Na+, K+ ATP ase and some related parameters in rat brain

Abstract

The effect of chronic ethanol exposure on oxidant-induced changes in brain synaptosomal membrane lipid peroxide, sulfhydryl (SH), polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) and Na+-K+ ATPase activity was investigated. Same analyses were also carried out in animals treated with both selenium and ethanol.
