The effect of zinc on the concentration of reduced and oxidized glutathione in the laboratory rats organism

Original language description

The aim of the experiment was to determine the effect of zinc nanoparticles (Zn NPs) on the antioxidant status of rats. The male of outbred Wistar albino rats were used in this experiment. The rats were divided into four groups. In each of group were stabled 5 males. The first group (Control) of rats served as control one without zinc administration. The second group (Zn-Phe) and the third group (Zn-Tyr) were administrated by zinc nanoparticles. In the fourth group of rats zinc oxide (ZnO) was dosed. After 30 days of the experiment, rats were sacrificed and the samples of blood and liver were analysed. Reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG) form of glutathione was determined using high performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection (HPLC-ED) and total content of zinc was determined by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). In the analysis of liver, decrease of GSSG in all groups was observed. Statistically significant was decrease by 54% (P &lt; 0.05) for ZnO group compared with control. The level of GSSG and total content of zinc in liver was without significant difference. In the whole blood, a significant decrease of GSH by 94% in the ZnO and by 65% in the Zn-Phe group was observed, compared with control group. The level of GSSG and total content of zinc in blood was without significant difference.
