Carbon tetrachloride induced hepatorenal toxicity in rats: possible protective effects of wild Pleurotus tuber-regium
Background: The economic cost of and liver and kidney diseases in Sub Saharan Africa remain prohibitive, hence the quest for medicinal foods that can reverse hepato-renal damages. The aim of this study is to investigate the hepato-renal protective effect of wild edible P.tuber-regium on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) induced oxidative stress in male Sprague–Dawley rats. Method: Thirty six rats wer...

متن کاملThe Possible protective effects of Physalis peruviana on carbon tetrachloride-induced nephrotoxicity in male albino rats
Physalis peruviana (physalis) has long held a place in folk medicine in the tropical countries where it grows. Here, the aim of this study was to evaluate the potential nephroprotective impact of physalis extract against carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced kidney injury and to explore the possible mechanisms by which this plant exerts its beneficial effects. Rats were randomly divided into equa...
