摘要

• Supraphysiological DECA treatment on heart redox metabolism was investigated during I/R in sedentary and exercised rats. • DECA reduced SOD and GR activities in exercised rats upon reperfusion. • Reduced antioxidant enzyme activities promote heart thiol oxidation in exercised rats. • Anabolic androgenic steroid abuse cardiotoxicity involves redox imbalance in exercised animals.
