چکیده مقاله:
IntroductionMethotrexate is used as an effective chemotherapeutic agent against different autoimmune diseases and tumors. According to several studies, oxidative stress and inflammation are involved in the pathogenesis of MTX-induced damage in different organs, especially the kidney. This study aimed at examining the ameliorating effects of apigenin on oxidative stress and inflammation due to MTX treatment in the kidney of rats.Methods The rats were classified into four experimental groups. The levels of cratinine (Cr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were measured in the collected blood samples. In kidney tissues, the levels of MDA, NO, CAT, GSH, GPx, and SOD along with TNF-α and IL-1β, were assessed. Results The API pretreatment group showed a significant rise in kidney antioxidants markers, besides significant reductions in the serum levels of Cr, BUN and kidney content of MDA, TNF-α, NO, and IL-1β. Based on the findings, API can prevent nephrotoxicity through mitigation of oxidative stress and inflammation.Discussion & Conclusion Our findings revealed that API can the improvement of MTX- induced nephrotoxicity by reducing inflammation and improving the oxidative status. The exact mechanism of API should be identified in future studies.
