Protective Effects Of Apocynin And Catalase In Oxidative Stress Of Renal Failure, Hypertension And Hypotension Rat Models

Oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenesis of several renal and cardiovascular diseases. In many of these diseases, there is an enhanced expression of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide oxidase (NADPH oxidase or Nox) leading to the production of superoxide anion (O2-) and accumulation of hydrog...

This study investigated the effects of apocynin, an NADPH oxidase inhibitor, and catalase, an H2O2 scavenger, on impaired renal function and haemodynamic in cyclosporine A (CsA), L-NAME and L-arginine Wistar-Kyoto rat models.
