Abstract: The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of zinc supplementation and zinc deficiency on the lipid peroxidation in the testis and kidney tissues of rats with experimentally induced hypothyroidism. The examination of the study results revealed that hypothyroidism in testis and kidney tissues increased MDA levels and decreased GSH levels (p<0.001). Zinc supplementation in addition to hypothyroidism, however, reduced the increased MDA amount and elevated GSH levels (p<0.001). Zinc deficiency together with hypothyroidism, on the other hand, was found to produce the opposite results (p<0.001). |
