The most prominent adverse effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as diclofenac (DF) are hepato-renal damage. Natural antioxidants can be preferred as an alternative and/or combination to improve this damage. This present study was conducted to evaluate the protective effect of Tubuloside A (TA) against diclofenac (DF)-induced hepato-renal damage.

Clarifying the interactions between substances as a result of exposure to multiple xenobiotics and determining the impacts on health are important from the toxicological point of view. Therefore, the aim of the study was to investigate the synergistic toxic effects of ethanol and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) in male albino rats. A total number of 28 Wistar male rats were divided into 4 groups (7/each), and 2,4-D (5 mg/kg) and ethanol (3 g/kg) were administered orally to rats for 60 days, either alone or in combination.

Pyraclostrobin (Pyra) is a fungicide in the strobilurin class and has proven to be very toxic to organisms primarily aquatic species. Resveratrol (Res) is a phytoalexin that exhibits multiple bioactivities as anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, cardiovascular protective, and anti-aging and is found in plant species such as mulberry, peanut, and grape. This study aimed to determine the protective effect of Res against Pyra-induced lipid peroxidation, oxidative stress, and DNA damage in rats.
