Protective Effects of against Oxidative Stress-Induced Liver Damage in Ovariectomized Mice.

Postmenopausal women express great failure in their ovarian hormone production, especially estrogen. This deficiency may promote hypercholesterolemia and accelerate the redox imbalance. The present study was designed to evaluate the protective effect of against estrogen deficiency-induced liver and uterus oxidative injury in experimental ovariectomized mice.

Protective effects of Avena sativa against oxidative stress-induced kidney damage resulting from an estrogen deficiency in ovariectomized Swiss mice model.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant capacity of Avena sativa and to confirm its protective effects on estrogen deficiency in ovariectomized mice (OVX) model. Animals were treated during 21 and 60 days as follows: negative control, positive control treated with oat, ovariectomized, and ovariectomized receiving hormonal or oat treatments, respectively. 21 days post-surgery, our results showed that ovariectomy increases weight gain and urea level in plasma.
