Animals were sacrificed 3 h and 30 d after treatments heads were immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen and forebrain cortices were removed. Crude mitochondrial fraction preparations of forebrain cortices were used for the biochemical analyses nitrite levels superoxide production malondialdehyde concentrations superoxide dismutase SOD activities and reduced glutathione contents. AlCl3 injection resulted in increased nitrite concentrations superoxide anion production malondialdehyde concentrations and reduced glutathione contents in the forebrain cortex suggesting that AlCl3 exposure promoted oxidative stress in this brain structure. The biochemical changes observed in neuronal tissues showed that aluminium acted as a pro-oxidant. However the nonspecific nitric oxide synthase NOS inhibitor L-NAME exerted anti-oxidant actions in AlCl3-treated animals. These results revealed that NO-mediated neurotoxicity due to intrahippocampal AlCl3 injection spread temporally and spatially to the forebrain cortex and suggested a potentially neuroprotective effect for L-NAME.
