Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Combined Fenofibrate and Nicotinamide on Oxidative Stress and Inflammatory Cytokines Involved in Cisplatin-Induced Nephrotoxicity in RatsOmaima M. Abd Allah, Abeer A.I. Sharaf El-Din, Fouad El DebakeyCisplatin (Cis) is an anticancer drug, which is accompanied with major side effects including nephrotoxicity. The current study was performed to assess the possible prophylactic effects of fenofibrate (FEN), Nicotinamide (NAM) and their combination on oxidative stress and inflammatory cytokines associated with cisplatin-induced renal damage. Rats were randomly divided into seven groups (8 each) as follows; control group; FEN group … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 9 Jan 2015 · 7,128 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIMPACT OF DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE IN PREVENTION OF PARACETAMOL INDUCED NEPHROTOXICITY IN RATSAbbas O. ElkaribParacetamol (PCM) overdose can cause nephrotoxicity with oxidative stress as one of the possible mechanisms mediating the event. However, Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), the major secretory product of the human adrenal gland, has been shown to possess a multi-targeted antioxidant activity which is also effective against lipid peroxidation induced in various animal models and against various human disorders. In this study, the … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2014 · 7,566 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Storing Temperature on Hepatotoxicity and Nephrotoxicity of Ifosfamide in Female RatFalah Mohammed AzizProblem statement: Ifosfamide (IFO) is a cytotoxic alkylating drug used for the treatment of a variety of cancers, although it has been found to induce certain hematological, hepatotoxic and nephrotoxic side effects. This drug is widely used in developing country, especially Iraq, but without caring too much to the storing temperature due to low drug maintaining facilities. The present work … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2012 · 7,883 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Camel's Milk on Cisplatin-Induced Nephrotoxicity in Swiss Albino MiceMohamed E.M. AfifiProblem statement: Nephrotoxicity is a major complication and a dose limiting factor for cisplatin therapy. Cisplatin mediated nephrotoxicity is remarkably documented by reactive oxygen species. Camel's milk has good nutritive value, antigenotoxic and anticytotoxic effects. The aim of the present study was to assess the protective effect of camel's milk against Cisplatin-induced renal oxidative stress in mice. Approach: Forty mal … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,989 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCiprofloxacin Does Not Exert Nephrotoxicity in RatsAsli Baykal, Figen Sarigül, G Süleymanlar et al.Ciprofloxacin, a member of the fluoroquinolone class, is an antibiotic used as a treatment for infections including the Anthrax bacteria. Studies concerning the safety and efficacy of ciprofloxacin have been controversial with respect to nephrotoxicity. Using rats orally treated with ciprofloxacin (400mg/kg/d), the effects of this drug were analyzed measuring several indications of nephrotoxicity: β-NAG, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, and … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,440 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleProtective Effect of Enicostemma littorale Blume Methanolic Extract on Gentamicin-Induced Nephrotoxicity in RatsNiraj Mukundray Bhatt, Kinjal Chauhan, Sharad Gupta et al.Problem statement: The Amino glycoside antibiotics cause drug induced nephrotoxicity at therapeutic doses and thus limits the use clinically. Oxidative stress is one of the main reasons for the development of nephrotoxicity. Approach: In light of this the aim of the present study was to investigate the role of mitochondrial as well as post-mitochondrial oxidative stress in the development of … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2011 · 9,547 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHepato and Nephrotoxicity Caused by Sub-Chronic Exposure to Relevant Concentrations of Human Exposure to Glyphosate-Based Herbicide: An Experimental Study in RatsFernanda de Maria Serra, Letícia Rocha Magalhães, Beatriz Bertholace Magalhães Silva et al.Glyphosate's remarkable effectiveness in weed control has made it among the foremost widely employed herbicides globally. Several Glyphosate-Based Herbicides (GBHs) contain 1-4 dioxane, a compound known to induce cancer in animals and potentially contribute to liver and kidney damage in humans. The objective was to assess the liver and kidney toxicity resulting from sub-chronic exposure to GBH in rats. Eighty … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 2 · 26 Dec 2023 · 5,194 accessesView PDFCite
