“The results of our study show that for MDMA intoxication the treatment with an antioxidant such as NAC may counteract the potentially hepatotoxicity.”
“The results obtained in the present study suggest that MDMA induces loss of GSH homeostasis, decreases antioxidant enzyme activities, and lipoperoxidation that causes an oxidative stress that accompaines the MDMA-induced apoptosis in liver cells.”
“The acute administration of MDMA produces a decrease of reduced and oxidized glutathione ratio, and antioxidant enzyme activities were significantly reduced after 3 hr and after 6 hr in frontal cortex.”
