Abstract
Carnitine administration (by intraperitoneal injection) to 21-day-old- rats prevents the increase of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (index of lipid peroxidation and free radical damage) induced by 30 mi n hypobaric hypoxia in four different parts of the brain (cerebral cor tex, subcortical structures, medulla oblongata and cerebellum).
