Abstract
When 15-day-old chick embryos were administered 0.25 mumol of hydrocortisone hemisuccinate sodium (HC) the lipid peroxides (LPO) level increased after a lag time and reached about 9-fold of control level at 48 h after the treatment. Thereafter, the amount of LPO decreased to near control level by 72 h. Data obtained by using various steroids indicated that the marked elevation of LPO in blood was related to glucocorticoid effects caused by a high dose administration. The elevation of LPO level in blood was prevented by triple administration of ascorbic acid (20 mumol/egg) at 3, 10 and 20 h after HC treatment.Entities:
