Abstract

A biochemical investigation was performed into activity of rat antioxidant defense enzymes at different time interval after administration of sodium thiopental and delta-sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP). It was shown that thiopental coma was accompanied by a decreased level of superoxide dismutase ( 6 and 24 h after exposure) and increased level of caspase-3 ( 6 h after exposure) in the rat blood plasma. A pharmacological correction with DSIP induced a decrease of the level of superoxide dismutase ( 6 and 24 h after exposure), glutathione peroxidase and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (after 6h).
