18571824 Celik I, Suzek H: Subacute effects of methyl parathion on antioxidant defense systems and lipid peroxidation in rats. Food Chem Toxicol. 2008 Aug;46(8):2796-801. Epub 2008 May 17.

In this study we aimed to examine how methyl parathion (MP) at sublethal dosages affects on malondialdehyde (MDA) content and antioxidant defense system (ADS) such as reduced glutathione (GSH), glutathione reductase (GR), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) in various tissues of rats exposed to 19 and 38 millimole (mM) MP dosages as drinking water ad libitum for 28 days continuously.

The level of 8-OH-2-deoxyguanosine in rat liver DNA was measured as an index of oxidative damage after treating rats for 10 days at a dose ranging from 0.75 to 10 mg/kg with a mixture of 15 pesticides (dithiocarbamate, benomyl, thiabendazole, diphenylamine, chlorthalonil, procimidone, methidathion, chlorpyrifos-ethyl, fenarimol, parathion-methyl, chlorpropham, parathion, vinclozolin, chlorfenvinphos, pirimiphos-ethyl) commonly found in foods of central Italy.
The administration of the pesticide mixture dose dependently reduced benzo (a) pyrene hydroxylase, N-demethylase activities, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, glutathione-S-transferase and thiol transferase activities in the liver.
