Indian Journal of Experimental Biology. 1998 Jan; 36(1): 60-4http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/61604Rats fed ethanol (3.76g/Kg body wt/day) for about 45 days exhibited high levels of tissue malondialdehyde, hydroperoxide and diene conjugates. Activity of tissue superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione content decreased. Administration of water soluble proteins of garlic (500 mg/kg body wt/day) to alcohol fed rats showed significant increase in antiperoxide activity and decrease in the activity of glutathione peroxidase and glutathione s transferase as compared to a standard drug gugulipid (50 mg/kg body wt/day).engAlcoholism --diet therapyAnimalsCatalase --metabolismGarlic --chemistryGlutathione --metabolismGlutathione Peroxidase --metabolismGlutathione Transferase --metabolismMaleMalondialdehyde --metabolismPeroxides --antagonists & inhibitorsPlants, MedicinalRatsRats, Sprague-DawleySuperoxide Dismutase --metabolismVegetable Proteins --pharmacologyJournal Article
