Tissue antioxidant status in streptozotocin-induced diabetes in rats : effects of dietary manganese deficiency
1992
Interactions between manganese (Mn) deficiency and streptozotocin (STZ)-diabetes with respect to tissue antioxidant status were investigated in male, Sprague-Dawley rats. All rats were fed either a Mn-deficient (1 ppm) or a Mn-sufficient (45 ppm) diet for 8 wk. Diabetes was then induced by tail-vein injection of STZ (60 mg/kg body weight), after which the rats were kept for an additional 4 or 8 wk. The control groups comprised rats not injected with STZ and fed either Mn-deficient or Mn-sufficient diets for a total of 12 wk.
