Abstract

Background: Cisplatin is a cytotoxic agent in cancer therapy. Nephrotoxicity is considered as a side effect of Cisplatin usage. Using rate models, we studied the possible protective impact of corn-silk (CS) extract against Cisplatin-induced Nephrotoxicity. Materials and Methods: Thirty-five experimental rats were divided into five groups (n=7 per each group) as follow: C1: Control received distilled water only; C2: received one dose of Cisplatin, and CS: received 300 mg/kg/day of CS. Both CS1 and CS2 received 200 and 300 mg/kg/day of the CS extract orally, individually, for eight consecutive days. CS1 and CS2 received a single dose of Cisplatin on the first day only. The specific biochemical markers and histopathological alterations were evaluated. Result: According to our results, Cisplatin administration could have induced severe degeneration in all parts of the nephron tubules and liver. Pre-treatment with CS exhibited a significant decrease in the malondialdehyde (MDA) levels as compared to the values obtained after treatment with Cisplatin alone (P<0. 01). Moreover, the CS extract with 200 mg dose showed significant (P<0. 01) protection against the Cisplatin-induced elevation of blood urea nitrogen. Further, the serum levels of alanine transaminase and aspartate transaminase were higher in the Cisplatin-treated groups, when compared to the control group (P<0. 05). Furthermore, the hepatic function was also improved in Cisplatin-treated animals, which were pre-treated with CS. Conclusion: CS has the potential to attenuate Nephrotoxicity and Lipid peroxidation induced by Cisplatin in rats.
