Lipoperoxides, vitamin E, and activities of superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and catalase in regenerating rat liver.
Lipoperoxides in homogenates of regenerating rat liver increased from 6 hours after the operation and reached a peak (about 7 times the control level) 18-24 hours after the operation. The concentration of blood lipoperoxides rapidly decreased after the operation. The enzymatic activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase, and vitamin E content in regenerating livers were also determined. Among these antioxidant factors, the catalase level changed markedly.
