Abstract:
PLGA (poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles represent an important synthetic biocomponent that has the potential to be a promising carrier of drugs, proteins, nucleic acids, due to its biodegradability and minimal side effects. The aim of our study was to observe the antioxidant effect of vitamin E loaded in PLGA nanoparticles administered over a period of 3 weeks in Wistar rats treated with a hypercaloric diet. Glutathione (GSH) and malondiadehyde (MDA) biomarkers determined from liver lysate were analyzed to evaluate the oxidative stress (OS) induced by the hypercaloric diet. The results of our study revealed a statistically significant increase for GSH and vitamin E in group 2 of Wistar rats receiving hypercaloric diet and a daily dose of vitamin E versus group 1 (p[0.005). The antioxidant effect of vitamin E was also observed by the statistically significant decrease of MDA in group 2 of Wistar rats compared with group 1. The daily dose of vitamin E has improved the liver redox status of group 2 Wistar rats.
