Özet

This study aims at investigating how zinc deficiency and zinc application affect lipid peroxidation in bone tissue of ovariectomized rats. The study included 40 adult female rats of Sprague-Dawley species. Group 1 (n = 10): control group were fed with normal diet. Group 2 (n = 10): the group fed with normal diet after being ovariectomized. Group 3 (n = 10): the group fed with zinc-deficient diet for 6 weeks after ovariectomy. Group 4 (n = 10): the group which was given intraperitoneal zinc (3 mg/kg day zinc) in addition to normal diet for 6 weeks after ovariectomy. Malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) levels were determined in erythrocyte, plasma and bone tissue. Group 3 had the highest plasma MDA levels compared to Groups 1, 2 and 4 (P < 0.05). These values were higher in Group 2 than in Groups 1 and 4 (P < 0.05). Bone and plasma MDA levels in Groups I and 4 were not different. Bone and erythrocyte GSH levels in Group 4 were higher than those in all other groups (P < 0.05). The lowest levels of bone and erythrocyte GSH levels were observed in Group 3 (P < 0.05). These values were higher in Group 2 when compared to those in Groups I and 3 (P < 0.05). This study demonstrate that zinc deficiency increased bone tissue damage in ovariectomized rats and that zinc supplementation prevented this damage. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
