PROTECTIVE EFFECT OF QUERCETIN ON CISPLATIN-INDUCED NEPHROTOXICITY IN RATS

The aim of this study was to investigate the possible effect of quercetin on cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. Experiments were done on thirty-two Wistar rats divided into four groups of 8 animals each. The CIS group received a single dose of cisplatin (8 mg/kg) intraperitoneally, whereas the CISQ group received quercetin intraperitoneally at a dose of 50 mg/kg for 9 days and a single dose of cisplatin intraperitoneally (8 mg/kg) on the...
