Abstract |
: |
Strong evidence exists for hepatic free radical production in human with liver disease , which may play a role in hepatic fibro genesis . This work aims to throw light upon link between life style in rural areas and susceptibility to Schistosomal coi infection with viral hepatitis C and Joy G. The magnitude og hepatic insult posed by the co-infection was assessed relative to changes in plasma antioxidant status, lipid per oxidation and lipid profile.
Schistosornal cases under study were selected according to the presence of I-ICV with HGV (Cl, n12)
Or absence 011, n=15) and compared to non-Schistosomal IICV with HGV states (Gill, n=13). Allied age-matched healthy states free of Schistosomiasis and HCV or 1IGV were laken as controls (CIV, n=1O).
Assessment of antioxidant parameters in plasma included a-(ocopherol, ac arotene, n-carotene, Jycopene, re(inol and vitamin C. Malondialdehyde (MDA) reprc senting lipid per oxidation products was involved besides the lipid profile involving triglycerides (TG) , total cholesterol ETC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLc), low density Iipoprot.ein cholesterol (LDLc), very low density lipoprotein chol esterol (VLDLc), apoilpoprotein A-I (Apo A-I), and apoilpoprolein 13 (Apo B) Liver function tests evaluated included albumin, total serum bilirubin, enzyme activities of alkaline phosphates (ALP), alanine and aspartate transarninases (ALT, AST) |
