title: [Differences between cerebellum and hippocampus in antioxidant system].
abstract: The effect of portacaval shunting on the antioxidant status of the cerebellum and hippocampus was studied in rats using standard methods of enzymatic analysis. Endogenous ammonia levels and activities of eight antioxidant enzymes were shown to be unequal in two brain regions and to respond differently upon portal-systemic shunt surgery.
