The present study was designed to investigate the possible potential protective role of
coenzymeQ10 (CoQ10; 10mg/kg/day, ip) and/or green tea (GT; 25mg/kg/day, po) against
gentamicin (GM) nephrotoxicity. Marked increase in the level of serum urea, creatinine and
lipid peroxidation (LPO) content was found after administration of gentamicin (80mg/kg/day,
ip) for eight days along with significant decrease in the antioxidant enzymes, superoxide
dismutase (SOD), reduced glutathione (GSH), catalase (CAT) as well as brush border …
The present study was designed to investigate the possible potential protective role of coenzymeQ10 (CoQ10; 10mg/kg/day, ip) and/or green tea (GT; 25mg/kg/day, po) against gentamicin (GM) nephrotoxicity. Marked increase in the level of serum urea, creatinine and lipid peroxidation (LPO) content was found after administration of gentamicin (80mg/kg/day, ip) for eight days along with significant decrease in the antioxidant enzymes, superoxide dismutase (SOD), reduced glutathione (GSH), catalase (CAT) as well as brush border enzymes (Na+/K+ ATPase, Mg+2ATPase and Ca2+ ATPase).Treatment with CoQ10 or green tea alone with GM showed significant decrease in serum urea, creatinine and tissue LPO content and significant increase in antioxidant and membrane bound enzymes. Combined treatment with CoQ10 and green tea was more effective in mitigating adverse effect of GM nephrotoxicity. The present work indicated that CoQ10 and green tea due to their antioxidant activity modified the biochemical changes occurred during gentamicin nephrotoxicity and thus had a potential protective effect.
