Alpha cypermethrin (α-CYP) is an insecticide, a member of the group of synthetic pyrethroid pesticides. This study aims to assess the histopathological and biochemical subacute effects of α-CYP on the renal tissues of 48 male Spraque-Dawley adult rats. In this study, the rats were divided into six groups: control, α-CYP (10 mg kg), α-CYP (20 mg kg), caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) (10 µmol kg), α-CYP + CAPE (10 mg kg), and α-CYP + CAPE (20 mg kg) groups.

Pesticides, which adversely affect the critical metabolic processes of organisms, disrupt the physiological balance by specifically targeting enzymes and may lead to such consequences that may lead to death. It provides benefits in agricultural activities. The p53 protein antagonizes bcl-2, an anti-apoptotic protein character, and induces apoptosis by causing mitochondrial membrane permeability.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to explore the protective effects of red dragon fruit extract (DFE) on gastric ulcers induced by indomethacin in rats, focusing on changes in oxidative stress markers and histopathological findings.
  • After treating the rats with DFE and inducing ulcers with indomethacin, the researchers noted significant improvements in oxidative stress levels in the groups that received DFE, particularly at higher doses of 500 mg/kg and 1000 mg/kg.
  • The findings suggest that DFE may mitigate gastric damage by lowering harmful markers like MDA and Caspase 3, while enhancing antioxidant levels, indicating a potential natural remedy for those suffering from gastric ulcers caused by NSAID use.
