Journal ArticleDOI

Simvastatin attenuates cisplatin-induced kidney and liver damage in rats.

TL;DR: Simvastatin is beneficial in cisplatin-induced kidney and liver dysfunction and organ damage in rats via prevention of lipid peroxidation and tissue fibrosis, preservation of antioxidant glutathione, and suppression of neutrophil infiltration.
Journal ArticleDOI

β-glucan ameliorates methotrexate-induced oxidative organ injury via its antioxidant and immunomodulatory effects

TL;DR: The findings of the present study suggest that beta-glucan, through its antioxidant and immunoregulatory effects, may be of therapeutic value in alleviating the leukocyte apoptosis, oxidative tissue injury and thereby the intestinal and hepatorenal side effects of methotrexate treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Taurine protects against methotrexate-induced toxicity and inhibits leukocyte death.

TL;DR: It appears that taurine protects against methotrexate-induced oxidant organ injury and inhibits leukocyte apoptosis and may be of therapeutic potential in alleviating the systemic side effects of chemotherapeutics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protective effect of β-glucan against oxidative organ injury in a rat model of sepsis

TL;DR: It seems likely that beta-glucan protects against sepsis-induced oxidative organ injury, as it significantly decreased GSH levels and increased the MDA levels and MPO activity and elevated plasma TNF-alpha levels in septic rats, causing oxidative damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxytocin protects against sepsis-induced multiple organ damage: role of neutrophils.

TL;DR: OT protects against sepsis-induced oxidative damage by acting as an antioxidant agent and its protective effect in the colon and liver appears to be dependent on its inhibitory effect on neutrophil infiltration.
