Onion(Allium cepa)extract prevents cadmium induced renal dysfunction

Protective effects of hydroalcoholic extract of Alcea rosea aerial parts on cadmium chloride-induced renal dysfunction in male rats

Background and Aims: Cadmium chloride causes renal dysfunction. The present study aimed to investigate the protective effects of hydroalcoholic extract of Alcea rosea aerial parts on cadmium chloride-induced renal dysfunction in male rats. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 54 adult male Wistar rats were assigned to six groups (n=9 in each group). The control group, the sham gr...

Protective effect of hydroalcoholic extract of Passiflora caerulea aerial parts on cadmium chloride-induced renal dysfunction in male rats

Background and Aims: Passiflora caerulea has antioxidant properties. The present study aimed to assess the effects of hydroalcoholic extract of Passiflora caerulea aerial parts on cadmium chloride-induced renal dysfunction in male rats. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 54 adults male Wistar rats 200±10 gr were divided into 6 groups (N=9). Control group, the sham group that re...

MitoQ administration prevents endotoxin-induced cardiac dysfunction.

Sepsis elicits severe alterations in cardiac function, impairing cardiac mitochondrial and pressure-generating capacity. Currently, there are no therapies to prevent sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction. We tested the hypothesis that administration of a mitochondrially targeted antioxidant, 10-(6'-ubiquinonyl)-decyltriphenylphosphonium (MitoQ), would prevent endotoxin-induced reductions in cardia...

[Disturbance of acid-base balance in cadmium-induced renal tubular dysfunction].

Plasma metallothionein antibody and cadmium-induced renal dysfunction in an occupational population in China.

It has been reported that anti-metallothionein (a metallothionein antibody) is present in the circulation of healthy subjects and in patients suffering from atopic dermatitis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether cadmium-induced renal dysfunction is related to the presence of the plasma metallothionein antibody (MT-Ab) in workers exposed to cadmium (Cd) occupationally. Plasma metall...
