Objectives: this study aimed to evaluate the impact of subacute risperidone administration on antioxidant enzyme activity and lipid peroxidation in rats. Methods: a total of fifteen male Holtzman albino rats were randomly assigned to a Control group (n = 5, no risperidone) and two treatment groups (n = 5 per group) receiving 0.4 mg·kg-1·day-1 and 4.0 mg·kg-1·day-1 risperidone, administered via orogastric gavage for 20 consecutive days. After treatment, brain and liver tissues were collected. The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), and glutathione S-transferase (GST) was analyzed. Reduced glutathione (GSH) levels and lipid peroxidation, measured as thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), were quantified. Results: findings indicate that in brain tissue, both doses significantly increased CAT activity and decreased the SOD/CAT ratio, and that the high dose significantly reduced TBARS levels. In liver tissue, a significant increase in CAT activity was observed with the high dose. Furthermore, both doses significantly increased G6PDH activity and reduced TBARS levels. Conclusions: these results underscore the influence of risperidone on cerebral and hepatic oxidative metabolism during the subacute phase.

Objetivos: este estudio tuvo como objetivo evaluar el impacto de la administración subaguda de la risperidona en la actividad de las enzimas antioxidantes y la peroxidación lipídica en ratas. Métodos: se asignaron aleatoriamente un total de quince ratas albinas Holtzman macho a un grupo Control (n = 5, sin risperidona) y dos grupos de tratamiento (n = 5 por grupo) con dosis de 0.4 mg·kg-1·día-1 y 4.0 mg·kg-1·día-1 de risperidona, administradas por vía orogástrica durante 20 días consecutivos. Después del tratamiento, se recolectaron los tejidos cerebral y hepático. Se analizó la actividad de la superóxido-dismutasa (SOD), catalasa (CAT), glutatión peroxidasa (GPx), glucosa-6-fosfato deshidrogenasa (G6PDH) y glutatión S-Transferasa (GST). Se cuantificaron los niveles de glutatión reducido (GSH) y la peroxidación lipídica, medida como sustancias reactivas al ácido tiobarbitúrico (TBARS). Resultados: los hallazgos indican que, en tejido cerebral, ambas dosis incrementaron significativamente la actividad de CAT y disminuyeron la relación SOD/CAT y que la dosis alta redujo significativamente los niveles de TBARS. En tejido hepático, se observó un aumento significativo en la actividad de CAT con la dosis alta. Asimismo, ambas dosis incrementaron significativamente la actividad de G6PDH y redujeron los niveles de TBARS. Conclusiones: estos resultados subrayan la influencia de la risperidona en el metabolismo oxidativo cerebral y hepáticodurante la fase subaguda.

Objetivos: Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar o impacto da administração subaguda de risperidona na atividade de enzimas antioxidantes e na peroxidação lipídica em ratos. Métodos: Quinze ratos albinos Holtzman machos foram aleatoriamente alocados em um grupo controle (n = 5, sem risperidona) e dois grupos de tratamento (n = 5 por grupo) recebendo risperidona nas doses de 0,4 mg·kg⁻¹·dia⁻¹ e 4,0 mg·kg⁻¹·dia⁻¹, administradas por via orogástrica durante 20 dias consecutivos. Tecidos cerebrais e hepáticos foram coletados após o tratamento. A atividade da superóxido dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutationa peroxidase (GPx), glicose-6-fosfato desidrogenase (G6PDH) e glutationa S-transferase (GST) foi analisada. Os níveis de glutationa reduzida (GSH) e a peroxidação lipídica, medida como substâncias reativas ao ácido tiobarbitúrico (TBARS), foram quantificados. Resultados: Os achados indicam que, no tecido cerebral, ambas as doses aumentaram significativamente a atividade da CAT e diminuíram a razão SOD/CAT, e que a dose mais alta reduziu significativamente os níveis de TBARS. No tecido hepático, observou-se um aumento significativo na atividade da CAT com a dose mais alta. Da mesma forma, ambas as doses aumentaram significativamente a atividade da G6PDH e reduziram os níveis de TBARS. Conclusões: Esses resultados ressaltam a influência da risperidona no metabolismo oxidativo cerebral e hepático durante a fase subaguda.
