The effects of organophosphate pesticides on some liver enzymes and lipid peroxidation

Ecosystems supporting clusters of sporadic TSEs demonstrate excesses of the radical-generating divalent cation manganese and deficiencies of antioxidant co factors Cu, Se, Fe, Zn

“…Lipophilic OPs also cross the blood brain barrier (160,161) and initiate CNS lipid peroxidation potentially resulting in a range of radical reactions (167)(168)(169)(170)(171)(172) which can proliferate in environments deficient in Se, Fe, Cu, Zn and compound the impact of any coexisting cation-initiated radical reactions.…”
