Abstract
The results of the present investigations show that ASA and SNP may stimulate the GSH-dependent antioxidant system and protect liver cells from oxidative stress. An increased activity of the H2S-producing enzymes and the increased GSH/GSSG ratio may lead to an elevated level of H2S, a molecule with antioxidant properties. A similar effect was not observed in the brain. In case of both sodium nitroprusside and aspirin administration, homeostasis of sulfane sulfur level was noted in both the liver and brain.
