“The bioactivation was dependent on N2-atmosphere, and presence of the P450-inhibitor metyrapone or GSH in the incubation media depressed the protein-binding of metronidazole both in the nasal olfactory mucosa and the liver.”
“In the elongation zone, MTZ induced an increase of TBARS content and a significant rise in GSH levels, whereas in the meristematic zone, lipid peroxidation was not observed and all antioxidant defense parameters analyzed were significantly increased.”
