Oxidative Stress Response in Liver, Kidney and Gills of Ctenopharyngodon Idellus (Cuvier & Valenciennes) Exposed To Chlorpyrifos

چکیده
Study on the chronic effects of an organophosphate, chlorpyrifos inducing oxidative stress in freshwater culturable carp, Ctenopharyngodon idellus has been made on exposure to sub-lethal concentration (1.41μg/L and 2.44μg/L) of the pesticide for 15, 30 and 60 days. Antioxidants viz. catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), reduced glutathione (GSH), glutathione-s-transferase (GST) and lipid peroxidation (LPO) in the liver, kidney and gills of the fish were analyzed. Studies revealed that the enhanced productions of reactive oxygen species (ROS) lead to oxidative damage to lipids & proteins, and inhibit antioxidant defence system of fish. The activity of LPO has followed an increasing trend and a decline in the activity of CAT, SOD and GSH at both the concentrations throughout the experiment. However, no definite trend in the activity of GST has been observed. Prolonged exposure to chlorpyrifos enhanced ROS formation, finally resulted in oxidative damage to cell and inhibited antioxidant capacities in the fish tissues.

The protective effect of rosemary in mitigating oxidative stress induced by Chlorpyrifos in rat kidney
Introduction: Chlorpyrifos is an organophosphorus insecticide that can produce reactive oxygen species, and oxidative stress in the kidney. On the other hand, rosemary extract is an antioxidant playing a protective role against free radicals. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the oxidative stress in rat kidney due to the exposure to chlorpyrifos and to assess the antioxidant effe...
