Effects of sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) on cisplatin-induced hepatic and cardiac toxicity.

In recent years, the cardiotoxicity and hepatotoxicity induced by chemotherapeutic drugs such as cisplatin (CP) have become significant issues. The current research looks into the effects of sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) on CP-induced hepatotoxicity and cardiotoxicity in rats. A total of 32 male Sprague Dawley rats were separated into four different groups: (1) control group, received only normal saline; (2) NaHS group, was intraperitoneally injected with NaHS (200 µg/kg/d, dissolved in saline) for 15 days; (3) CP group, was intraperitoneally injected only one dose of CP (5 mg/kg) and (4) CP plus NaHS group, received CP along with NaHS.

P-Coumaric Acid Mitigates Doxorubicin-Induced Nephrotoxicity Through Suppression of Oxidative Stress, Inflammation and Apoptosis.

Background And Aims: P-Coumaric acid (PCA) is one the compound that has free radical scavenging effects. This study investigates the protective effect of PCA on tissue damage in DOX-induced nephrotoxicity.

Methods: Thirty two Wistar rats were divided into control, PCA, DOX (15 mg/kg, i.

Assessment of the effect of sodium hydrogen sulfide (hydrogen sulfide donor) on cisplatin-induced testicular toxicity in rats.

Cisplatin (CIS) is an antineoplastic drug able to produce free radicals that are capable to induce various side effects in different tissues. Hydrogen sulfide (HS) has notable antioxidant, anti-apoptotic, and anti-inflammatory effects in different systems but its role in male reproductive system is not fully understood. In the present research, the effect of sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) on cisplatin-induced testicular toxicity in male rats was studied.

Grape Seed Proanthocyanidin Extract Improved some of Biochemical Parameters and Antioxidant Disturbances of Red Blood Cells in Diabetic Rats.

Grape seed proanthocyanidin extract (GSPE) has a broad spectrum of biologic properties against oxidative stress. This study aimed to investigate the effects of GSPE on biochemical factors and antioxidant enzymes of erythrocyte in diabetic rats. Diabetes was induced through single injection of streptozotocin (50 mg.
