Pancreatic beta cell dysfunction is an important step of the establishment and progression of diabetes mellitus. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and the subsequent deflagration of the unfolded protein response (UPR) is a process that can lead to cell dysfunction and death. Thus, the search for techniques capable of minimizing es stress is useful as an adjuvant for the treatment against …
The objective of this project is to evaluate the effect of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on metabolic parameters and oxidative stress in the hepatic tissue of rats with type 1 diabetes mellitus. 32 Wistar rats (± 250g BW)will be distributed in experimental groups (n=8): G1 (normal, control); G2 (normal, treated with NAC); G3 (untreated diabetics); G4 (diabetics, treated with NAC). Experimental D…
