[Glutathione, a biochemical indicator for different types of cellular stress. The change in the GSH level in the brain of rats with hypoxia].

By the ligation of left vertebral artery in some white, adult WISTAR rats, of 150-200 g, anaesthetized with ether, a cerebral hypoxia of 10 minutes was induced. After beheading, there was determined the level of SH-neproteic groups and glutathione (GSH) in the whole heparinized blood and there was observed an important decrease with -15.88% and -16.
