The oxidative desulfuration of the three phosphorothionate insecticides-chlorpyrifos, chlorpyrifos-methyl, and leptophos-was studied in rat brain and liver. Hepatic microsomes demonstrated activities of 4-28 nmollglmin, with male activity 2-to 4-fold higher than female activity. Very low desulfurati

In humans, cerebral hypoxia is a common component of severe brain insults, including trauma, stroke, and perinatal asphyxia. Oxidative stress and free radicals incidental to cerebral hypoxia are implicated in damaging macromolecules, leading to collapse of cellular homeostasis and cell death. Neuron
The nephrotoxic/carcinogenic mycotoxin ochratoxin A (OTA) occurs as a contaminant in food and feed and may be linked to human endemic Balkan nephropathy. The mechanism of OTA-derived carcinogenicity is still under debate, since reactive metabolites of OTA and DNA adducts have not been unambiguously
## Abstract There is a great body of evidence linking a high fat diet with the formation of gallstones. However, the effect of fat __per se__ on obstructive liver damage (not involving gallstone formation) has not been assessed. The aim of this work was to study the effect of a high fat diet on liv
