Özet
In the current study, amifostine is evaluated for its radioprotective role in serum and kidney tissue by oxidative (malondialdehyde-MDA, advanced oxidation protein product-AOPP) and antioxidative markers (catalase, glutathione-GSH, free-thiols-F-SH). Thirty Wistar albino 3-4 months old, female rats, were randomly divided into Group I (n = 10): Control, Group II (n = 10): Irradiation-alone, Group III (n = 10): Amifostine before irradiation. In Group II and III, right kidneys of the rats were irradiated with a single dose of 6 Gy using a 60Co treatment unit. Rats in Group III received 200 mg/kg amifostine intraperitoneally, 30 min prior to irradiation. Following sacrification at 24th week, blood and kidney tissue samples were collected. Statistical analysis was done by One-way ANOVA, Post hoc Bonferroni, Dunnett T3, and Mann-Whitney U tests. Administration of amifostine significantly decreased the serum AOPP and MDA levels when compared to the irradiation-only group (P = 0.004, P = 0.006; respectively). Also amifostine significantly increased serum catalase activities and GSH levels, when given 30 min prior to irradiation (P = 00.02, P = 0.000; respectively). In the kidney tissue, administration of amifostine significantly decreased AOPP and MDA levels (P = 0.002, P = 0.016; respectively). Tissue GSH activity was increased following amifostine administration (P = 0.001). There was no statistically significant result on histopathological evaluation. Amifostine may reduce radiation-induced nephropathy by inhibiting chronic oxidative stress. Biomarkers of oxidative stress in serum and kidney tissue may be used for evaluation of the radiation-induced nephropathy.
