Abstract
The prooxidant-antioxidant balance in rats with oxidative stress was studied during correction of the L-arginine-NO system. Oxidative stress was induced by intravenous injection of E. coli lipopolysaccharide. Under conditions of oxidative stress the prooxidant-antioxidant imbalance was least pronounced during selective correction of the L-arginine-NO system. L-Arginine and nonselective NO synthase inhibitor had little protective effect.
