Abstract
Twenty-four hours after intraperitoneal injection of cyclophosphane (40 mg/kg) and dioxydine (300 mg/kg) to C57Bl/6 mice, liver catalase activity dropped by 29 and 23%, respectively. In BALB/c mice, dioxydine (but not cyclophosphane) reduced catalase activity by 24%. Superoxide dismutase activity was lowered by cyclophosphane (but not dioxydine) in BALB/c mice, and by both dioxydine and cyclophosphane in C57Bl/6 mice (by 24 and 86%, respectively). The level of 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA)-reactive lipid peroxidation (LPO) products in the liver of BALB/c mice treated with cyclophosphane and dioxydine increased 1.4- and 2.1-fold, respectively, while in C57Bl/6 mice it did not differ from the control. The initial rate ofin vitro-induced LPO in BALB/c mice receiving cyclophosphane and dioxydine increased 1.5- and 4-fold, respectively. In C57Bl/6 mice both cyclophosphane and dioxydine inhibited the accumulation of TBA-reactive LPO products. On the whole, animals of the C57Bl/6 strain are more resistant to the LPO-inducing action of mutagens than BALB/c mice, despite the fact that the latter are characterized by a higher activity of antioxidant enzymes.
