Popis: | Treatment of many inflammatory diseases involves a chronic use of NSAIDs in large doses increasing acute kidney injury risk. This study was designed to evaluate a potential renoprotective effect of Gum Acacia (GA) on diclofenac (DICF) induced nephrotoxicity. Six groups of rats were used: normal group; control group (deprived from water during week 13), DICF group (deprived from water during week 13 and injected DICF i.p. 15 mg/kg/12 h at days 4 through 6 of water deprivation days, GA groups (1, 2 or 3 g/kg/day in drinking water) for 12 weeks followed by water deprivation and DICF injection as described. Kidney function, oxidative stress and anti-oxidant biomarkers were measured. Interleukin-1β, IL-10, TNF-α, complement receptor (CR)-1, monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 and caspase-3 were assessed. Kidney sections were scored for fibrosis, tubular injury and inflammatory cells. An elevation in renal biomarkers, inflammatory cytokines, malondialdehyde and apoptotic markers was observed after DICF injection (p |
