Therapeutic effect of berberine against 5-fluorouracil induced ovarian toxicity in rats.
Berberine (BER) is a naturally occurring alkaloid with a multitude of beneficial effects on human health. Although it is one of the most studied phytochemicals, its curative effect against ovarian damage caused by 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) has not been demonstrated to date. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible protective effect of BER against 5-FU-induced ovotoxicity, focusing on its ability to attenuate oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis. The 30 female rats were randomly divided into five groups: Control, BER (2 mg/kg), 5-FU (100 mg/kg), 5-FU+BER (1 mg/kg) and 5-FU+BER (2 mg/kg). The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), total oxidant status (TOS), total antioxidant status (TAS), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and caspase-3 were determined using spectrophotometric methods. In addition, ovarian samples were evaluated histopathologically using hematoxylin&eosin staining method. The MDA, TOS, 8-OHdG, IL-6, TNF-α and caspase-3 levels significantly increased by 5-FU administration. Also, we found that 5-FU significantly decreased TAS, SOD and CAT levels. Treatments with BER significantly attenuated the 5-FU-induced ovarian damage via increasing the antioxidant capacity and reducing the oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, the ovoprotective effect of BER was also confirmed by histopathological evaluation. BER may be evaluated as a potential candidate molecule to reduce 5-FU-induced ovarian toxicity.
期刊介绍:
Biotechnic & Histochemistry (formerly Stain technology) is the
official publication of the Biological Stain Commission. The journal has been in continuous publication since 1926.
Biotechnic & Histochemistry is an interdisciplinary journal that embraces all aspects of techniques for visualizing biological processes and entities in cells, tissues and organisms; papers that describe experimental work that employs such investigative methods are appropriate for publication as well.
Papers concerning topics as diverse as applications of histochemistry, immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, cytochemical probes, autoradiography, light and electron microscopy, tissue culture, in vivo and in vitro studies, image analysis, cytogenetics, automation or computerization of investigative procedures and other investigative approaches are appropriate for publication regardless of their length. Letters to the Editor and review articles concerning topics of special and current interest also are welcome.
