The valuable effects of potent antioxidant curcumin in cisplatin induced liver and kidney injury
Abstract
Objective: Cisplatin (CIS) is a potent anticancer drug that uses commonly. The toxic effects of CIS limit its usage. In the present experimental study, it is aimed to evaluate effects of curcumin (CUR) on CIS induced hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity.
Method: The rats were separated into three groups as each composed of 7 rats. First one is control group, the second is the CIS (6 mg/kg, i.p) + saline group, and third is the CIS (6 mg/kg, i.p) + CUR (100 mg/kg i.p) group. CIS was given at single dose and CUR was given for 3 days. After 3 days, kidney, liver and blood samples were analyzed with histopathological and biochemical technics.
Results: In CIS+ CUR group, there was decline in levels of Blood urea nitrogen (BUN), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ALT and compared with CIS group. Besides, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH) levels were found increased as compared with CIS group. The ameliorating effects of CUR were presented with histopathological findings.
Conclusions: CIS has serious toxicity on kidney and liver and oxidative stress play an important role on toxicity. The present study suggests that CUR has important healing effects on nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity of CIS.
