We determined the content of the lipids peroxidation (LPO) products, content of the stable nitric oxide metabolites and activity of the antioxidant system in the liver, serum or whole blood. Authors found that, when administered orally to rats with hepatitis, the PhC stimulated a glutathione unit of the antioxidant system as well as restored (up to a control level) the intensity of LPO processes, content of the nitrite and nitrate anions in the liver and whole organism, in such a way ensuring the functional state of the liver normalization. The obtained results testify good prospects of using the PhC with cathiazine + succinic acid as a hepatic protector with the pronounced antioxidant properties in correcting the general liver pathology and its combination with the impaired spermatogenesis.</p> ER -
