Betaine ameliorates arsenic-induced kidney injury in mice by mitigating oxidative stress-mediated inflammation.

Arsenic, an environmental pollutant and poisonous metalloid, has adverse effects on different body organs, including the kidneys. Betaine is a natural nutrient that has many beneficial health effects. This research was conducted to examine the impact of betaine on nephrotoxicity caused by inorganic arsenic (NaAsO) in mice.
