3 context sentences(design, population, supporting numbers)
Twenty four hours after the lesion was produced, the activity of the enzymes glutathione S-transferase (GST), glutathione reductase (GRD) and glutathione peroxidase were measured in various cerebral areas.
The lesion caused reduced activity of the three enzymes in the hippocampus, and also in the activity of striatal GRD.
Four groups of rats were studied: Healthy, treated with physiological saline; healthy treated with Cerebrolysin (2.5 ml/kg daily for one week, intraperitoneally); FF-lesioned and pretreated with physiological saline, and with lesions and pretreated with Cerebrolysin.
