Abstract
Although several etiological factors contribute to the complexity of the aging process, the ultimate component of macromolecular damage and consequent cell death involves the altered redox balance inclined towards increased ROS production and/or decreased antioxidant protection. Given that, the chronic dihydrotachysterol (DHT) intoxication in rats induce Hutchinson Gilford progeria like syndrome, the present study provides the evidence for altered redox balance as evidenced by alteration in parameters of oxidative stress in blood plasma and erythrocytes including MDA, GSH, FRAP AOPP PMRS, AGEs, AChE and osmotic fragility which substantiate the suitability of the model for aging studies.
