The results showed that only the IBU treatment contribute to the control of the lipid peroxidation (LPO) andthiol group levels in all tissues. However, CEL can be able to increase the susceptibility of gastric mucosa to ethanol-induced oxidative stress like classic NSAIDs, while it has a significant protective effect in brain tissue ..
