“In conclusion, QT may be useful in preventing inhibition of chick intestinal Ca(2+) absorption caused by MEN or other substances that deplete GSH, by blocking the oxidative stress and the FasL/Fas/caspase-3 pathway activation.”
“ QT protected the intestinal Ca(2+) absorption against the inhibition caused by MEN , but QT alone did not modify.”
“The FasL/Fas/caspase-3 pathway was activated by MEN , effect that was abrogated by QT.”
“The enhancement of GSH peroxidase activity produced by MEN was blocked by QT treatment.”
