Peroxisomal Malfunction Caused by Mitochondrial Toxin 3-NP: Protective Role of Oxytocin

Peroxisomes are single membrane cell organelles with a diversity of metabolic functions. Here we studied the peroxisomal dysfunction and oxidative stress after 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NP) induced neurotoxicity and the possible protective effects of oxytocin. Adult male and female rats were subjected to Oxt and/or 3-NP treatment. The antioxidant enzymes, Superoxide dismutase (SOD) and Catalase ...
