Protective Role of Sodium Selenite on Mercuric Chloride Induced Oxidative and Renal Stress in Rats

Protective Role of Sodium Selenite on Mercuric Chloride Induced Oxidative and Renal Stress in Rats

Backgroud: Reactive oxygen species are known to play a major role in mercuric chloride induced oxidative and renal stress. Sodium selenite as an exogenous source of selenium is used for endogenous selenoprotein synthesis to scavenge the free radicals. The study was designed to investigate the possib...
