Abstract

Renal ischemia causes oxidative stress which leads to severe and prolonged inflammatory responses following reperfusion. Re-perfusion injury in the KIDNEY is a causal factor of acute renal failure which has been studied in different animals and clinical models. METFORMIN is an oral medication used alone or with other medications to treat type 2 diabetes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of METFORMIN following the induction of ISCHEMIA-REPERFUSION in the RAT KIDNEY. In this study, 30 adult male Wistar RATs weighing 200-250g were used which were divided randomly into three groups of 10 which include the sham group; this group had not received any medication and after only a week, the abdominal cavity was opened then left renal nephrectomy was performed and the abdominal cavity reclosed. The control group (IR): this group had not received any medication until induction of ISCHEMIA-REPERFUSION and after a week the abdominal cavity was opened and following ischemia- reperfusion, left KIDNEY nephrectomy was performed. I/R+MET group: this group was gavaged with a dose of METFORMIN (100 mg/kg) each day for a week at a same time and after a week the abdominal cavity was opened and then ISCHEMIA-REPERFUSION was induced and left KIDNEY nephrectomy performed. In all groups except sham, both the renal pedicles were closed and released after 45 minutes for induction of ISCHEMIA-REPERFUSION. After 4 and 8 hours, left KIDNEY nephrectomy was performed. At day zero (before drug administration) and after the end of ISCHEMIA-REPERFUSION and during renal nephrectomy, blood samples were collected and serum creatinine and BUN levels were examined. The data obtained analyzed by ANOVA on significant levels (p<0.05). Histopathological results of I/R+MET group showed degeneration and cell swelling in some tubules at low levels and mild pyknosis and the nucleus and cytoplasm of most tubules were normal. The serological results obtained indicated a slight and insignificant decrease in BUN and serum creatinine in I/R+MET group compared with the I/R group. This study showed that METFORMIN relatively protects the KIDNEY from ISCHEMIA-REPERFUSION injury.
