Abstract
ABSTRACT:Objective: To evaluate the protective effects of Nigella Sativa on biochemical changes in the kidney of Albino rat treated withDoxorubicin.Methodology: This experimental study was undertaken in April 2015 for a duration of 05 weeks at BMSI, JPMC. Forty Albinorats were divided into four groups, ten animals in each group. Group-A was taken as control. Group-B was treated withDoxorubicin (DOX). Group-C was given doxorubicin and Nigella Sativa (NS), and Group-D was treated with Nigella Sativaonly. At the end of the study, the serum urea and creatinine levels were measured.Results: The mean values (mg/dl) of serum urea and creatinine levels in group-A and B were 23.40±3.07, 0.61±0.059, 85.50±7.93,and 1.06±0.071 respectively. There was highly significant increase in the mean values of serum urea and creatinine levels ingroup-B when compared with group-A. Further, the mean values (mg/dl) of serum urea and creatinine levels in group-...
