Abstrakt: | The present study aimed to evaluate the potential protective and antioxidant effect of polysaccharides (PS) extracted from Ulva lactuca against thiacloprid (THC) induced nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity. The antioxidant capacity of PS was tested in vitro using ABTS radical scavenging activity and plasmid DNA cleavage assays andin vivo on adult male rats treated for 30 days. Animals were allocated into four groups: control; THC (22.5 mg/kg); THC (22.5 mg/kg) + PS1 (100 mg/kg diet); and THC (22.5 mg/kg) + PS2 (200 mg/kg diet). The structural features of PS were determined by Fourier transformed infrared (FT-IR), UV absorption peak detection, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gel permeation chromatography, and also functional properties were investigated. Overall, results indicated that THC increased significantly malondialdehyde, advanced oxidation protein products, glutathione levels, which is correlated with severe histological and plasmatic biochemical injuries in both liver and kidney tissues. However, cotreatment PS induced a significant protective and healing affects against the nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxcity induced by THC. (© 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.) |
