Abstract

Cyclosporine(CsA) is an immunosupressant drug widely used in post-allogeneic organ transplant to reduce the activity of the patient’s immune system and so the risk of organ rejection. It has been studied in transplants of skin, heart, kidney, liver, lung, pancreas, bone marrow and small intestine. Initially isolated from a Norwegian soil sample, Both kidney and liver dysfunction are prominent side effects of CsA. The present study was designed to determine the possible protective effect of salidroside(Sal) isolated from the BuOH extract of Acer termentosum Max against oxidative damage in CsA-treated(50 mg/kg, ip) nephrotoxicity rats. Results showed oral administration of methanol and butanol extact of Acer termentosum Max(200 mg/kg, po) significantly reduced activities of marker enzymes(BUN, Creatinine) and LDH activity in serum to CsA induced experimental kidney injured rats. And significantly decrcease of protein amount level in urine and activities of free radical formation enzyme were significantly improved by the treatment of Sal. And significantly decrcease of MDA level in kidney and activities of calalase, glutathione peroxidation and SOD were significantly improved by the treatment of Sal(20 mg/kg, po). But glutathione concentration and glutathione S-transferase actitity was not affected. Results of this study revealed that Sal could afford a significant protection in the alleviation of CsA-induced nephrotoxicity injury.
