[The effect of vitamin E on the survival rate and biochemical parameters such as isocitrate dehydrogenase, lactate and selected peptidases and proteases during endotoxic shock in the rat].

Abstract

Protective effect of the investigated alpha-tocopherol solution regarding survival and changes of several biochemical parameters in rat endotoxin shock could already be demonstrated after application of the solvent (special oil HCO-60) alone. An additional effect of Vitamin E was observed only in DP IV activity and leukocyte counts.
