Two groups which had been bred for 5 months (equivalent to human beings aged 20) were treated by immobilization stress for 8 weeks with or without vitamin E, and one out of two groups was continuously bred until they become 18 months old (equivalent to human senescence) with or without Vitamin E. Afterwards, the changes of serum and hepatic metabolites were investigated on the basis of the index of stress-related in vivo oxidative damage. As a result, it was found that stress increases serum triacylglycerol and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in the long and short-term, and decreases serum HDL-cholesterol. In addition, stress concerned the decrease of total antioxidant status (TAS) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) as well as the increase of malondialdehyde (MDA) in liver. These results suggest that stress in one s youth causes negative results in TG, HDL-cholesterol, AST, TAS, SOD and MDA measured in one s senescent. The administration of vitamin E in the stressed mice decreases serum TG and AST that are increased by stress, and exerts influence on the increase of serum HDL-cholesterol. Also vitamin E recovered the values of liver TAS, SOD and MDA in the stressed mice. In conclusion, vitamin E represented protective effect in the stressed mice to some degree.
