Effects of Cl 2 exposure and DMTU treatment on oxidized glutathione in BAL fluid cells and supernatant. Ten minutes after Cl2 exposure (A-B), oxidized GSSG levels were determined. Animals exposed to Cl2 had increased GSSG in the BAL fluid and intracellularly 10 min following Cl2 exposure (A & B). Extracellular GSSG was reduced at one hour and 24 hours following Cl2 challenge, but no differences were found between control and DMTU treated groups.(n = 6-9; * p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001).
