[Comparison of glutathione peroxidase activity in erythrocytes and certain tissues between voles and mice]
1Division of Veterinary Biochemistry, Nippon Veterinary and Animal Science University, Tokyo, Japan.
Abstract:
Glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activities in erythrocytes and certain tissues were investigated in herbivorous voles and C57BL/6J mice. In both voles and mice, GSH-Px activities in liver, kidney and erythrocyte were higher than those of the other tissues, such as adipose tissue, pancreas and skeletal muscle. Voles showed lower GSH-Px activities in liver, kidney, erythrocyte and brain compared with mice.
