RESUMO

There is a growing number of evidences, associating the oxidative stress produced by the reactive species of oxygen, with the aging process at one hand, and with the beginning and development of the vascular complications of several chronic and degenerative diseases at another. The type of diet and the usage of specific medicines may be related among the responsible factors by the generation of free radicals. In Brazil, the consuming of higher amounts of fat on the diet has increased in the last years and haloperidol has been the most used neuroleptic in brazilian public health system due to its low cost when compared with other antipsychotic drugs. The objective of this study was to determine the lipid peroxidation through TBARS production in rats tissues, as an oxidative stress measure, promoted by the high fat diet associated with the chronic usage of haloperidol, the correlation between the abdominal fat content and the intracellular magnesium concentration as well as the correlation between the intracellular magnesium concentration and the hepatic production of TBARS. The high fat diet has promoted a significant increase on the TBARS levels in Wistar rat livers when compared to the control diet (one way ANOVA ), considering that the chronic usage of haloperidol has increased the hepatic production of TBARS promoted by high fat diet, raising twice the levels of TBARS when compared to control group ( two way ANOVA). The TBARS production promoted by the association of high fat diet with chronic usage of haloperidol seems to be related with the intra-erythrocyte concentration of magnesium, for there was a statistically positive correlation, between the content of intracellular magnesium and the TBARS production in rats livers . Supporting previous works that report a possible ionic base to the metabolic syndrome development, in this dissertation a negative correlation has occurred, statistically significant, between the intracellular magnesium concentration and the abdominal fat content among all the animals. The group fed by high fat diet as well as the group treated with haloperidol seems to be responsable, by diferent ways, for this result.
