Resveratrol protects against cisplatin-induced ovarian and uterine toxicity in female rats by attenuating oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis.

Cisplatin is an important antineoplastic drug used in multiple chemotherapeutic regimens but unfortunately causes serious toxic effects as ovarian and uterine toxicity. This study aimed to investigate the potential protective effect of resveratrol (RSV) against cisplatin-induced ovarian and uterine toxicity in female rats. Thirty-two female Wistar rats were divided randomly into four groups (n = 8 in each).
