dc.description.abstract | Background: Cyclosporin A (CsA) is immunosuppressive drug, but nephrotoxicity has been a major limiting factor. Thepresent study aimed to evaluate the protective effect of parsley leaves extract and silymarin against nephrotoxicity inducedby Cyclosporin A in rats. Methods: sixty male albino rats divided into six groups (n=10). Group I control group. Group IIreceived single dose of CsA (50mg/kg weight, orally/day). Group III received parsley leaves extract (250mg/kg b.wtorally/day). Group IV received CsA and parsley leaves extract as in group II and III. Group V silymarin group receivedsilymarin (100 mg/kg b.wt orally/day). Group VI received CsA and silymarin as in group II and V. Serum urea, uric acidand Creatinine were measured. Biomarkers of oxidative stress, antioxidant status, DNA damage, apoptosis andinflammatory-mediators had been measured in kidneys tissues. Results: Administration of Cyclosporin A to rats inducednephrotoxicity associated with a significant increase in serum urea, uric acid and Creatinine. Significant increase in MDA,NO, 8-OHdG, caspase-3, NF-κB, TNF-α and significant decrease of GST in kidney tissues. Histopathological examination ofanimal treated with CsA exhibited disruption of normal kidney architecture; cellular disorganization, intracellular vacuoles,and formation of many inflammatory cells. Co-administration of parsley leaves extract or silymaren+ CsA attenuated all ofthe parameters near to the normal. However, pronounced attenuation was recorded in animals co treated with parsleyleaves extract. Conclusion: The study suggested that the anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effect of parsley leaves extractmay prevent CsA-induced nephrotoxicity via decreasing the oxidative stress, and repairing the histopathological changes. | en_US |
