“Several agents already in therapeutic use might exert some of their effects by antioxidant action , including selegiline (deprenyl), apomorphine and nitecapone.”
“ Selegiline also reversed CSM-induced changes of anti-oxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities, GSH/GSSG ratio, as well expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1).”
“Our results led us to the conclusion that prolonged selegiline administration can raise the antioxidant capacity of the animals and prevents the accumulation of fat in their livers.”
