Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effects of propofol through evaluating its interaction with nitric oxide (NO), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and carbon monoxide (CO). Wistar male rats were divided in 4 groups: (1) bolus injection of propofol (1% 10 mg/mL, 100 mg/kg bw, i.p.); (2) Nω-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME; NO synthase inhibitor, 60 mg/kg bw, i.p.) + bolus injection of propofol (1% 10 mg/mL, 100 mg/kg bw, i.p.); (3) DL-propargylglycine (DL-PAG; H2S synthase inhibitor, 50 mg/kg bw, i.p.) + bolus injection of propofol (1% 10 mg/mL, 100 mg/kg bw, i.p.); (4) zinc protoporphyrin IX (ZnPPIX; CO synthase inhibitor, 50 μmol/kg bw, i.p.) + bolus injection of propofol (1% 10 mg/mL, 100 mg/kg bw, i.p.). Increased levels of albumins, low-density lipoproteins, alkaline phosphatase, amylase, high-sensitivity Troponin T, and fibrinogen were found in L-NAME + propofol group. Platelet crit, platelet count, total cholesterol, and high-density lipoproteins were elevated in ZnPPIX + propofol group. Hydrogen peroxide was increased in all groups treated with gasotransmitters inhibitors. Reduced glutathione was reduced in all groups, superoxide dismutase activity only in L-NAME + propofol. The effect of propofol on various biochemical, haematological, and oxidative stress markers may be at least in part mediated through interaction with 3 estimated gasotransmitters.

Abstract
It has been assumed that the cardioprotective effects of propofol are due to its non-anesthetic pleiotropic cardiac and vasodilator effects, in which gasotransmitters (NO, H2S, and CO) as well as calcium influx could be involved. The study on isolated rat heart was performed using 4 experimental groups (n = 7 in each): (1) bolus injection of propofol (100 mg/kg body mass, i.p.); (2) L-NAME (NO synthase inhibitor, 60 mg/kg body mass, i.p.) + propofol; (3) DL-PAG (H2S synthase inhibitor, 50 mg/kg body mass, i.p.) + propofol; (4) ZnPPIX (CO synthase inhibitor, 50 μmol/kg body mass, i.p.) + propofol. Before and after the verapamil (3 μmol/L) administration, cardiodynamic parameters were recorded (dp/dtmax, dp/dtmin, systolic left ventricular pressure, diastolic left ventricular pressure, heart rate, coronary flow), as well as coronary and cardiac oxidative stress parameters. The results showed significant increases of diastolic left ventricular pressure following NO and CO inhibition, but also increases of coronary flow following H2S and CO inhibition. Following verapamil administration, significant decreases of dp/dtmax were noted after NO and CO inhibition, then increase of diastolic left ventricular pressure following CO inhibition, and increase of coronary flow following NO, H2S, or CO inhibition. Oxidative stress markers were increased but catalase activity was significantly decreased in cardiac tissue. Gasotransmitters and calcium influx are involved in pleiotropic cardiovascular effects of propofol in male Wistar rats.

Abstract
Considering the well-known antioxidant properties of statins, it seems important to assess their impact on major markers of oxidative stress (superoxide anion radical, nitric oxide, and index of lipid peroxidation) to compare the antioxidative potentials of atorvastatin and simvastatin during the different degrees of hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) in rats. This study was conducted on adult male Wistar albino rats (n = 90; 4 weeks old; 100 ± 15 g body mass) in which HHcy was achieved by dietary manipulation. For 4 weeks, the animals were fed with one of the following diets: standard rodent chow, diet enriched in methionine with no deficiency in B vitamins (folic acid, B6, and B12), or diet enriched in methionine and deficient in B vitamins (folic acid, B6, and B12). At the same time, animals were treated with atorvastatin at doses of 3 mg/kg/day i.p. or simvastatin at doses of 5 mg/kg/day i.p. Levels of superoxide anion radical and TBARS were significantly decreased by administration of simvastatin in normal and high-homocysteine (Hcy) groups (p < 0.05). At 4 weeks after feeding with purified diets, the concentrations of the GSH, CAT, and SOD antioxidants were significantly affected among all groups (p < 0.05). Our results indicated that statin therapy had variable effects on the redox status in hyperhomocysteinemic rats, and simvastatin demonstrated stronger antioxidant effects than did atorvastatin.
