主 题:pulmonoprotective Zataria multiflora cyclophosphamide lung toxicity oxidative stress antioxidant activity
摘 要:Objective To evaluate the protective effect of Zataria multiflora extract,an antioxidative medicinal plant,against cyclophosphamide(CP)-induced oxidative lung damage in *** Mice were intraperitoneally pre-treated with various doses of Zataria multiflora extract(50,100,200,and 400 mg/kg)once daily for 7 consecutive *** were then injected with a single 200 mg/kg intraperitoneal dose of CP 1 h after the last administration of ***-four hours later,mice were euthanized,the lungs were immediately removed,and biochemical and histological studies were *** A single dose of CP markedly altered the levels of several biomarkers associated with oxidative stress in lung *** with Zataria multiflora significantly inhibited the elevation of lipid peroxidation level and the depletion in glutathione content,and superoxide dismutase and catalase activities induced by CP in *** addition,Zataria multiflora effectively alleviated CP-induced histopathological abnormality and pulmonary damages in mice lung *** The results reveal that Zataria multiflora protects lung tissues from CP-induced toxicity and suggest a role for oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of lung toxicity produced by CP in *** Zataria multiflora has been extensively used as an additive agent and is regarded as safe,it may be used concomitantly as a good supplement for reducing organ toxicity in patients undergoing chemotherapy,besides their consolidated ethnopharmacological uses.
