All substances were administered through gavage and in 10 consecutive days. Twenty four hours after the last day of injection, body and kidney weights were measured and after mild anesthesia, kidney was removed and fixed in formalin for preparing tissue sections. Tissue alterations were investigated by light microscope. Results: Based on the obtained results, body and kidney weights in the 3rd, 5th, 6th and 7th groups showed significant Increase as compared with the control group. Body and kidney weight in the 4th group showed significant decrease as compared with lead group. Histological examination of kidney tissue showed that garlic administration decreased the rate of kidney tissue damage. Conclusion: Garlic, due to its antioxidant effect, can prevent lead-induced toxicity and tissue damage in the kidney.
