[Paraoxonase activity and lipid peroxides concentration in serum of rats subchronically intoxicated with chlorpyrifos--organophosphate insecticide].
BACKGROUND Toxicity of organophosphate insecticides is mainly due to the inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE). However, organophosphate insecticides in acute, as well as in chronic and subchronic intoxication may lead to oxidative stress causing the enhancement of lipid peroxidation and changing the activities of antioxidative enzymes. Paraoxonase PON1 is synthesized by the liver. This enz...
متن کاملAccidental organophosphate insecticide intoxication in children: a reminder
Misuse of organophosphate insecticides, even in case of domestic application, can be life threatening. We report the case of siblings admitted with respiratory distress, pinpoint pupils and slurred speech. The symptoms appear after spraying the skin by insecticides. Plasma pseudocholinesterase level appeared to be very low, consistent with acute intoxication with organophosphate insecticide.Man...
متن کاملAcute Toxicity of an Organophosphate Insecticide Chlorpyrifos to an Anuran, Rana cyanophlyctis
Background: Chlorpyrifos is an organophosphate pesticide that elicits broad-spectrum insecticidal activity against a number of important arthropod pests. Determining the insecticides’ toxicity to amphibians can give us a better understanding regarding the role of toxicants in amphibian declines. This information would be beneficial to assess their ecological relevance at environmental con...
متن کاملProtective Effect of Emblica Officinalis on Chlorpyrifos (an Organophosphate Insecticide) Induced Male Reproductive System in Rats
Chlorpyrifos is one of the mostly used organophosphates insecticides, has a major toxic effect in mammalian rat’s reproductive system. The ancient Indian herbal formulation, Emblica offcinalis plays a major role to subvert many diseases in human body. Through a preliminary study, we have tried to establish the ameliorative properties of Emblica offcinalis with respect to reproductive rejuvenati...
متن کاملFalsely high serum creatinine concentration associated with severe methanol intoxication.
A case of severe methanol intoxication (1300 mg/L) was associated with markedly increased serum creatinine (490 mg/L) despite normal urea values and the absence of any other signs of renal disease. These values declined progressively to normal, and the patient recovered with no visual impairment. Additional laboratory experimentation suggested that the high creatinine value was probably ascriba...
