Popis: | This study was designed to investigate whether the treatment with the N-acetyl-L-cysteine prior to the administration of chemotherapy drug would prevent from nephrotoxicity and the loss of reproductive performance induced from chemotherapy treatment. Female rats were divided into five equal groups of six each: 1/control group; 2/rats i.p administered saline solution; 3/rats i.p administered holoxan (50 mg/kg b.wt); 4/rats i.p administered N-acetyl-L-cysteine (160 mg/kg b.wt); 5/rats i.p administered holoxan and N-acetyl-L-cysteine at the same doses. After medications, females rats were allowed to mate with males and the pregnant rats were sacrificed on day 18 of gestation. Premating treatment with holoxan showed reduction (p |
