Curcumin is a phenolic compound extracted from Curcuma longa rhizome commonly used in Asia as a spice, pigment and additive. In traditional medicine of India and China, curcumin is considered as a therapeutic agent used in several foods. Numerous...
متن کاملRenoprotective effect of curcumin on acetaminophen-induced nephrotoxicity in rats
This study investigated the nephroprotective effect of curcumin against acetaminophen (APAP)induced nephrotoxicity in rats. APAP-induced nephrotoxicity was evident by a significant increase (P<0.01) of urea and creatinine in serum. Furthermore, a significant increase (P<0.01) of lipid peroxidation as malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO), protein carbonyl (PC) contents, interleukin-1β(IL-1β)...
متن کاملRenoprotective antioxidant effect of alagebrium in experimental diabetes.
BACKGROUND Despite the beneficial effects of alagebrium (ALA), a putative advanced glycation end-product (AGE) breaker, on diabetic nephropathy, its renoprotective mechanisms are incompletely understood. Since oxidative stress exacerbates diabetic renal injury through interaction with AGE, the present study examined the antioxidative property of ALA in db/db mice, mesangial cells cultured under...
متن کاملthe effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)
cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
Renoprotective effect of curcumin against the combined oxidative stress of diabetes and nicotine in rats
The progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN) is accelerated by smoking. The current study investigated the ability of curcumin to protect the kidneys against damage from oxidative stress induced by diabetes mellitus (DM) and nicotine (NC). A total of 24 male Wistar rats were divided into four groups of six rats each. DM was induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin 60 mg/k...
