Article Synopsis
- The study investigated how melatonin can help male albino rats impacted by growth issues due to exposure to the pesticides chlorpyrifos (Ch) and cypermethrin (Cy) during pregnancy.
- Pregnant rats were divided into several groups that received different treatments, including melatonin, to see how these interventions affected their offspring's development.
- Results showed that melatonin, either given before or after exposure to the pesticides, improved various growth measures in the male offspring, suggesting its potential as a protective antioxidant.
Background: Lambda-cyhalothrin is a type II pyrethroid insecticide that is used for pest control in agricultural, domestic, and industrial settings. Glutathione is an antioxidant that has been reported to confer protection on biological systems against the adverse impacts of insecticides.
Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of glutathione on the serum lipid profile and oxidative stress parameters of rats exposed to lambda-cyhalothrin toxicity.
Chlorpyrifos is a widely used organophosphate insecticide for domestic, agricultural and industrial purposes. Lead is a toxic heavy metal and it is used for domestic and industrial purposes. Taurine is a semi essential amino acid with bioprotective properties.
