standardization of induction of oxidative stress with fenton mixture (fm) in isolated perfused rat kidney and the antioxidant effect of terminalia arjuna bark in the isolated oxidatively stressed rat kidney has been evaluated. six groups each containing eight isolated perfused rat kidneys were used for the present study and the oxidative stress was induced by perfusing the isolated kidneys with...

it has been proposed that organic nitrates such as glyceryl trinitrate (gtn), used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, act by producing nitric oxide (no). however, the biochemical pathway for no formation from gtn is not well understood. in the present study, we showed that nitrate formation from gtn, by isolated rat hepatocytes, was inhibited about 50% when cellular glutathione was de...
