Melatonin protects against oxidative stress induced by the kidney carcinogen KBrO(3).
: OBJECTIVES: Free radical scavengers can protect against the genotoxicity induced by chemical carcinogens by decreasing oxidative stress. The protective effect of the antioxidant melatonin was studied in the kidney and liver of rats treated with the kidney-specific carcinogen potassium bromate (KBrO(3)). The major endpoint of oxidative.....
