Abstract

ABSTRACTWe investigated how resveratrol affects lipid oxidation during experimental renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats. We used 48 adult male rats assigned to five groups: group 1, control; group 2, renal ischemia; group 3, renal ischemia + reperfusion; group 4, resveratrol + renal ischemia; group 5, resveratrol + renal ischemia + reperfusion. Plasma and renal tissue malondialdehyde (MDA), and erythrocyte and renal tissue glutathione (GSH) levels were measured and histologic changes in the renal tissue were examined. Ischemia-reperfusion affected the MDA-GSH balance adversely and caused histopathological changes in the renal tissue of the ischemia and ischemia + reperfusion groups. Resveratrol treatment normalized MDA and GSH levels as well as the histopathology that occurred in the renal tissue of the ischemia and ischemia + reperfusion groups.
