Journal ArticleDOI
Chemoprotective effect of lipoic acid against cyclophosphamide-induced changes in the rat sperm
Elangovan Selvakumar,Chidambaram Prahalathan,Periyasamy Thandavan Sudharsan,Palaninathan Varalakshmi +3 more
TL;DR: Pretreatment with lipoic acid improved the semen quality and reduced the oxidative stress and DNA damage induced by CP, thereby demonstrating the protection rendered by lipoIC acid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lupeol ameliorates aflatoxin B1-induced peroxidative hepatic damage in rats.
TL;DR: Assessment of the hepatoprotective effect of lupeol, a pentacyclic triterpene isolated from the stem bark of Crataeva nurvala, on aflatoxin B(1) (AFB(1))-induced hepatotoxicity in a rat model indicates thatlupeol is a potent hepatoprotsectant as silymarin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protective effect of DL-α-lipoic acid on cyclophosphamide induced oxidative cardiac injury
Yenjerla Mythili,Periyasamy Thandavan Sudharsan,Elangovan Selvakumar,Palaninathan Varalakshmi +3 more
TL;DR: Cardiotoxicity, evident from increased activities of serum creatine phosphokinase, lactate dehydrogenase, aspartatetransaminase and alanine transaminase in CP administered rats, was reversed by LA treatment, highlighting the efficacy of LA as a cytoprotectant in CP induced cardiotoxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protective effect of dl-α-lipoic acid in cyclophosphamide induced oxidative injury in rat testis
TL;DR: Findings indicate a cytoprotective role of lipoic acid in this experimental model of testicular toxicity, and show normal lipid peroxidation and antioxidant defenses during cyclophosphamide-induced injury.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protective effect of lipoic acid on cyclophosphamide-induced testicular toxicity.
Elangovan Selvakumar,Chidambaram Prahalathan,Periyasamy Thandavan Sudharsan,Palaninathan Varalakshmi +3 more
TL;DR: By the reversal of biochemical and morphological changes towards normalcy, the cytoprotective role of lipoic acid is illuminated in CP-induced testicular toxicity.
